Bryan LongI have a strange question. I am looking for a lawyer in
Los Angles County in California that may know about Birth Certificate laws.
My brother is wanting to get a certified copy of his birth certificate, but
is being told by people in Cali that only a few select people within the
family can sign to have one given to them. The catch is that they must sign
the document in person - not easy to do when you are in Ohio 
Needless-to-say my brother does not have the money to fly to Cali just to
get his certificate. To wrap this up I was hoping a lawyer in LA would be
able to clarify what the heck he can do to get his birth certificate.
I don't want to use the board for anything but baseball cards, but I figured
that someone on there may be able to help me out.
* NOTE: I checked with Leon first to make sure that this was OK. I guess I am using my one OT for the year 
Any help would be wonderful - I would be happy to call anyone to talk over the phone.
Thanks in advance
