To whom do you deliver your papers when you resign a commission?

State Notary Commission
County Clerk where your current oath is on file
The Secretary of State
Your employer

The correct answer is: County Clerk where your current oath is on file

When resigning a commission, the correct person to deliver your papers to is the County Clerk where your current oath is on file. This is because the County Clerk is responsible for recording and maintaining official documents, including oaths of office. The other options, while related to government entities, are not directly involved in the acceptance of your resignation. The State Notary Commission authorizes individuals to perform notarial acts, the Secretary of State is responsible for overseeing state elections and governmental functions, and your employer does not have the authority to accept your resignation from a commission. Therefore, the County Clerk is the most appropriate choice in this scenario.
