Practice question
An adult has an official certificate of foundling issued before RA 11767's implementation. The LCR demands that the person disregard it and recreate every ordinary new-foundling document before issuing a CLB. Which statutory rule applies?
- Old certificates have no legal effect
- Every holder must purchase a new certificate privately
- Only a court may ever read the old record
- The LCR shall immediately issue a CLB without cost on that document alone, and the old certificate retains the same legal effect
- The certificate automatically proves adoption
