I didn’t give them permission to use my birth or I didn’t give them permission to file anything. A restraining order case is public records. Anyone can get access to my birth certificate.
A:
If someone has filed your birth certificate and initiated a restraining order without your consent, it's important to take immediate action. Unauthorized use of your birth certificate can lead to identity theft or misuse of your personal information. You have the right to protect your personal documents and ensure they are not used without your permission.
Regarding the restraining order, while these cases are public records, there are steps you can take to limit access to sensitive information. You can request to have certain details sealed or redacted to protect your privacy. It's crucial to address any inaccuracies in the filing to prevent further complications.
Reach out to a family law attorney who can guide you through the process and help you understand your rights. They can assist in challenging the unauthorized filings and ensure that your personal information is safeguarded. Taking these steps will help you regain control over your personal records and address any legal issues effectively.
