Under the Federal Rules of Evidence, a birth certificate is a “self-authenticating document.” (Federal Rules of Evidence Rule 902). If a birth record introduced as evidence has the state seal and the signature of the authorizing official, it’s good to go in any American court of law.
Birth certificates are hearsay evidence but fall under an exception to the hearsay rule.
If there were ever to be a legal proceeding regarding Zero’s birth certificate, depositions can be taken from Dr. Fukino, Dr. Onaka, and Loretta Fuddy, the new DOH director.
Hawaii law allows the release of a certified COPY of a birth record for inspection or possession under a court order from a court of competent jurisdiction.

Federal Rules are Post Constitution. The REQUIREMENTS of the constitution are not subject to subsequent "rules." If the Constitution requires proof, while federal rules only require a stamp from the state, it is the federal rules that must go begging because they do not meet the requirements of Constitutional law.

A court cannot set it's policies as superior to the document which created the court.
