This bill would expand the definition of "authorized person" for the purposes of furnishing a certified copy of a death record, to include, among others, an appointed conservator of a person or estate. By expanding the definition of "authorized person" to include individuals who are required to execute a statement sworn under penalty of perjury in order to receive a certified record, the bill would expand the crime of perjury, thereby imposing a state-mandated local program. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
