Where is the embossed seal of the DOH on any birth certificate that lacks the signature of the director? Show me.
Yes, the seal can be REPLICATED for use on stationery or other items, but the OFFICIAL SEAL, in embossed form, is to be used with the director’s signature. As it says (and you conveniently ignored):
(b) The official seal of the department of
health shall be embossed near the signature of the
director of health to verify commissions of
appointment of deputy directors and notaries public,
certificates, and other formal official documents on
which the official seal has been customarily used or
is appropriate to be used, as the director of health
may determine on a case-by-case basis. “
That is the only place where the use of the embossed seal is authorized, and it says that it SHALL BE EMBOSSED NEAR THE SIGNATURE OF THE DIRECTOR OF HEALTH.
You are treating a REPLICATION as if it was the same thing as the official embossed seal, when the statute clearly makes a distinction.
And you are libeling me. Cease and desist.
