Child One was 3 1/2 when the BC was changed.
The "2" refers to a footnote found at the bottom of the Appeals Court opinion.
The family court did not make any findings about when this change occurred, and neither Gina nor Egan testified at trial about when it occurred. However, Jean Chun (Ms. Chun), a Child Protective Services (CPS) social worker with the Department of Human Services (DHS), investigated Gina's allegations of domestic violence against Egan and testified about statements that Gina made to her about when the birth certificate was changed. Ms. Chun testified, in part, about an entry in her records of investigation as follows:
Q. [By counsel for Egan] At the top, you indicate that Ms. Inoue stated that she put Mr. Inoue's name on [Child One]'s birth certificate when her daughter was 3 and a half years old. They were not asked questions when they went to the Department of Health, but only told the clerk that they were now married and wanted to put Mr. Inoue on [Child One]'s birth certificate. That's a statement that Mrs. Inoue made to you - -
A. That's correct. (2)
2. In contrast to the timing reflected in Ms. Chun's testimony, Gina stated in several affidavits in support of pre-trial motions that "[Gina] did put [Egan] on the birth certificate when [Child One] was about a year old so that all the children would have the same name as [she has] and the other children have," and that "[Gina] did add [Egan] to the birth certificate after [Egan] and [she] were married and [she] was pregnant with [Child Two]." However, the affidavits were not admitted into evidence at trial.
