The register of deeds has the power to take acknowledgments, administer
oaths, and certify the same by his or her signature. The register must keep a
book in which every instrument filed for record in his or her office is entered
and an official seal. The register of deeds may appoint one or more deputies
for whose acts the register will be responsible. The deputy may not be the
county treasurer, sheriff, clerk or surveyor. If a register of deeds is not
elected pursuant to section 32-518, the county clerk shall act as ex officio
register of deeds.
