Text

If a birth parent used an alias name in terminating his or her parental rights, and the alias is listed in the original sealed birth record, that birth parent may register if the agency, organization, entity or person that placed the child for adoption, certifies to the court that the individual seeking to register used the alias name set forth in the original sealed birth certificate.
