Birth Records Access Rights
Summary
In North Carolina, birth records are confidential and accessible only to specific individuals and agencies. A biological father not listed on the birth certificate must establish paternity through legal means to access these records. Without a court order, others cannot legally verify a childs existence. If you provide medical record screenshots, it does not grant automatic verification rights. Always consult an attorney to protect your rights and privacy.Full Conversation

yes. There was a wellness check done on my daughter back in august of last year she was not with me at the time and I told the deputies that she is fine I was sick so I didn't want to get her sick they excepted that answer and then left, 3 days later I have a person at my door asking about my daughters whereabouts. I assumed he was a PI so I sent him on a wild goose chase and gave him a false address on purpose. When he had come to my house he said an anonymous welfare check had been requested again that morning. I showed him a screenshot or two of my daughter's medical record and sent him * screenshots of it. He comes back a day later for me to learn he is a detective in the sex crimes department which he never identified himself as law enforcement the initial encounter I had with him. He claimed he could not verify the screenshots were real with the hospital. I never signed a medical record release or anything. He asked me to sign one I told him no I will meet him at my attorney's office and if she says I should sign it I would. He responded with I can just petition for a subpoena on that following Monday. When he left he said he would get with her biological father even though he is not on the birth certificate, no paternity test has been done, and he has no rights to come up with a date and time so they could both see my daughter. I didn't hear a word from the detective or her biological father for two months. I followed up a couple pf times via text, email, and phone only to never get a response. back in November I finally here from him and it has nothing to do with my daughter but the fact that I had called the police department to get a harassment report on his girlfriend documented. He claimed he was working the harassment case and not one time mentioned my daughter. If he did in fact get a subpoena for my medical records would I know about it?
