What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill requires the state registrar and any local registrar to issue certified
copies of certain vital records relating to birth, marriage, divorce, domestic
partnership, termination of domestic partnership, or death if a person makes the
request in writing and, to the extent permitted, if the requested vital record is
available for statewide issuance in the state registrar's electronic system for vital
record issuance, and if the person pays the appropriate fee. If the vital record is not
enabled for statewide issuance in the state registrar's electronic system for vital
record issuance, the registrar responsible for filing or registration of the vital record
may issue a certified copy under this section. Under current law, a person requesting
certain vital records must pay the appropriate fee and make the request in writing
to the registrar responsible for filing or registering the vital record.
