Influencing a notary to perform improperly is considered a:

  1. Felony

  2. Misconduct

  3. Misdemeanor

  4. Violation

The correct answer is: Misdemeanor

Influencing a notary to perform improperly is considered a misdemeanor because it is a less serious offense compared to a felony or misconduct. A felony is a major crime that is punishable by jail time, while misconduct refers to the improper or unethical behavior of a professional. Violation typically refers to a minor offense or breach of a rule or law. Therefore, the most appropriate classification for this act would be a misdemeanor.
