German term or phrase: a.D.
Auf einer Geburtsurkunde aus dem Jahre 2005 findet sich die folgende Unterschrift: "Notar (...) a.D.".
Soweit ich weiss steht a.D. fuer ausser Dienst, aber wenn der Notar ausser Dienst ist, wieso unterschreibt er dann Geburtsurkunden? Hat es etwas damit zu tun, dass er Notarialverwalter des eigenen Notariats ist? Oder damit dass, es sich um eine beglaubigte Abschrift handelt? Heisst "a.D." hier etwas anderes?
Vielen Dank fuer jegliche Hilfe.
