A birth certificate is a public document.

You don’t get to “release” it.

The county where he was born would have it on file.

Birth Certificates are not public records in some states. At least no one can obtain them other than the person whose birth it records or maybe their parents.

Of course Government agencies or the cops with a court order could get them.

A birth certificate is a public document.

Apparently not in Hawaii, according to the article and the link above.

However there does seem to be a process for verification of the information on the certificate. And it only costs $5 to have it done. You have to provide the information, and they they will apparently tell you if it is correct or not.
