36-1-301. Advance notice system.

The object of this part is to establish an advance notice system that enables an eligible person to request the department to provide advance notification prior to the release of adoption records, sealed records, sealed adoption records, post-adoption records, or any other records or papers under § 36-1-127(c) that have information regarding such person in order to give the person requesting advance notification the opportunity to prepare for the release and any impact this might have on the person or the person's family or associates. If the department has received such a request, it shall delay the release of the adoption records, sealed records, sealed adoption records, post-adoption records, or any other records or papers to another person during the advance notice period.
