It makes sense that in order to get the divorce, she had to produce proof of the child; an American court would require that since the child is mentioned in the petition for divorce. If she didn't have a copy of the birth certificate in her possession, she would have to write to get a certified copy, and they would date the document on the day it was issued. It was received & filed before the divorce was granted in March.
My point was, how interesting that she wrote to Kenya to get the certified copy of the document and not Honolulu!
I agree - If this document is authentic, and, if she had never submitted the original Kenyan birth documents to Hawaiian authorities (i.e. only provided Hawaii an “affidavit”) then she would have had to contact Kenyan authorities to obtain a certified document of her son’s birth and paternity.
