There are a variety of ways to deal with the signature line. If at a loss for space...
Quote:
John Henry for the parties
John Henry for the driver
John Henry as Secured Party
John Henry as Claimant
John Henry as Agent
[ Believe it or not Doe is left out on purpose! ]
The following require more space:
Quote:
John Henry for DOE JOHN H
John Henry for the State of California
John Henry d/b/a DOE JOHN H
I know of someone that has established that its, say,
Quote:
House of Smith d/b/a
DOE JOHN H...
This was established by letterhead sent to the head of the DMV or the like.
If there is really a severe space restriction for 'signature', one could simply put:
Quote:
DOE JOHN H
or
DOE JOHN H 1293993 {license or ID #}
Either way, one can within three days or so of filling out the app for a DL send a letter to the DMV (Director or Attorney) or SoS that might go along these lines:
Quote:
John Henry of the Doe clan
To fiduciary agents/officers of the DMV:
This is to inform you that I, __________________, on behalf of
DOE JOHN H
and/or for
JOHN HENRY DOE
(CALIFORNIA) File # ______________
apply for {or renew or whatever} a CALIFORNIA IDENTIFICATION CARD.
I would not suggest a "true name" signature. True Name d/b/a ENTITY #3049494 is one thing. But merely signing True Name could put you in the position of accommodation party. IMHO its best to just put
Quote:
DOE JOHN H #03949494
or
DOE JOHN H
for the signature if you are extremely pressed for space and to always subsequently notify the DMV of your power of attorney or some other claim---IN OTHER WORDS make it clear as pie without a bunch of blah blah blah Paytriot kitchen sinkage that John Henry was acting as Attorney-In-Fact in putting the signature of the ENTITY on the signature pad--as in so they cant presume otherwise. Alternatively or additionally one could file a fictitious name registration that shows say...
Quote:
John Henry, c/o private 100 Main street, New York, New York not domestic
doing business as DOE JOHN H
Don't expect the lemming mindset to even remotely comprehend your exercise of brains. If you are having conceptual issues perhaps you are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.
