which is the ONLY thing the State of Hawaii reissues
and it is sufficient for the purpose used
i would like to see proof, because i know this is not true, i have dealt with hawaii before in a matter and you can in fact get a copy of the long form for $10, especially in a paternity suit...photostatic or other copies are available when:
§338-19 Photostatic or typewritten copies of records. The department of health is authorized to prepare typewritten, photostatic, or microphotographic copies of any records and files in its office,
which by reason of age, usage, or otherwise are in such condition that they can no longer be conveniently consulted or used without danger of serious injury or destruction thereof, and to certify to the correctness of such copies. The typewritten, photostatic, or microphotographic copies shall be competent evidence in all courts of the State with like force and effect as the original.
