Spanish term or phrase: Titular de la notaría número 5
Hey everyone,

I know this term has been discussed before, but I'm not sure it's really ever been properly resolved.

Researching the term in the Mexican law governing notaries, I see that "notarías" can be created/vacated/filled, etc. For example:

"En las notarías de nueva creación o a las que se encuentren vacantes, en tanto se realiza el nombramiento del titular, el Gobernador del Estado podrá nombrar a un notario provisional..."

"El notario que reciba una notaría cuyo titular deje de actuar por cualquiera de las causas establecidas en esta Ley, lo hará por riguroso inventario."

This convinces me that's it's a position and not a physical office, nor is it the notary themselves, as many answers state.

Has anyway managed to figure this one out?

Cheers,
Nick

Explanation:
I believe the asker is right - it's a specific position rather than a specific person

See:

A Mexican notary is usually appointed by the Governor. The number of notaries are limited as they are appointed based on the population of the city and their jurisdiction is restricted to the state they are based on. Notary certifications are usually handed down from generation to generation and are very closely guarded.
