Hi all, I am new to law study and trying to understand our legal system further. I am trying to find out if it is possible to replace a current birth record with a new record. Essentially, wiping out my previous one and establishing a new one.
Here is links to Florida Statutes:
http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/...382/ch0382.htm
(4) SUBSTITUTION OF NEW CERTIFICATE OF BIRTH FOR ORIGINAL.--When a new certificate of birth is prepared, the department shall substitute the new certificate of birth for the original certificate on file. All copies of the original certificate of live birth in the custody of a local registrar or other state custodian of vital records shall be forwarded to the State Registrar. Thereafter, when a certified copy of the certificate of birth or portion thereof is issued, it shall be a copy of the new certificate of birth or portion thereof, except when a court order requires issuance of a certified copy of the original certificate of birth. In an adoption, change in paternity, affirmation of parental status, undetermined parentage, or court-ordered substitution, the department shall place the original certificate of birth and all papers pertaining thereto under seal, not to be broken except by order of a court of competent jurisdiction or as otherwise provided by law.
I simply don't understand it.
