     § 7712.7.  Application for certificate of title by agent.
        (a)  Authorization to apply.--No person may apply for a
     certificate of title on behalf of another person unless
     authorization to do so is in effect and is verified by oath or
     affirmation of the other person, made, except as between lessors
     and fleet owners as lessees, not more than 15 days before the
     application is received by the department. A lessor may
     authorize a fleet owner to apply for a certificate of title for
     a leased snowmobile or ATV for a period of up to one year.
        (b)  Certificate not to be assigned in blank.--No person may
     apply for, or assign or physically possess, a certificate of
     title, or direct or allow another person in his employ or
     control to apply for, or assign or physically possess, a
     certificate of title, unless the name of the transferee is
     placed on the assignment of certificate of title simultaneously
     with the name of the transferor and duly notarized.
        (c)  Persons authorized to hold certificate.--No person may
     receive, obtain or hold a certificate of title recorded in the
     name of another person for the other person who is not in the
     regular employ of, or not a member of the family of, the other
     person, unless the person receiving, obtaining or holding the
     certificate of title has a valid undischarged security interest
     recorded in the department against the snowmobile or ATV
     represented by the certificate of title.
        (d)  Penalty.--A person who violates this section commits a
     summary offense and shall, upon conviction, be sentenced to pay
     a fine of $100 and costs of prosecution.
     (Dec. 12, 1986, P.L.1562, No.170, eff. 60 days; June 8, 2001,
     P.L.123, No.18, eff. July 1, 2001; June 25, 2001, P.L.701,
     No.68, eff. 120 days)

        2001 Amendments.  Act 68 overlooked the amendment by Act 18,
     but the amendments do not conflict in substance and have both
     been given effect in setting forth the text of section 7712.7.
