Civil, tax, and administrative responsibility of notaries according to thejurisprudence of the Minas Gerais State Court of Justice

This study aims to examine the administrative, civil, and tax liabilities of notary and registry offices through jurisprudential and documentary research. Based on 269 judicial decisions found on the official website of the Minas Gerais Court of Justice, 31 decisions meeting the study's criteria were collected. They were divided into 3 categories and 12 subcategories using Bardin's content analysis method. The study found that errors caused by negligence can be mitigated with people management strategies, well-structured recruitment and selection processes, and specialized training programs focused on document analysis and other skills. Additionally, intentional errors can be mitigated through the implementation of a compliance system, which may improve thequality of services provided by notary and registry offices and enhance their credibility. In conclusion, services provided by notary and registry offices are reliable, effective, and essential to citizens. However, notaries and registrars should possess sufficient administration and management skills, in addition to their technical and legal expertise, to effectively manage an office.
