Search of death certificates
Sec. 4. Whenever an adoptee or a birth parent submits a written
consent for release of identifying information under IC 31-19-21 (or
IC 31-3-4-27 before its repeal), the state registrar may search the
death certificates in the state registrar's possession regarding the
related adoptee or a birth parent:
(1) who has not submitted a consent for the release of
information under IC 31-19-21; and
(2) whose consent is necessary before identifying information
may be released to the adoptee or birth parent who has
submitted the written consent.
As added by P.L.1-1997, SEC.11.
