Its not even a misdemeanor. What you have is a certified COPY of his birth certificate. The ORIGINAL is a file in the government records wherever he was born.

Answer 2

Unless you stole it from the hospital where he was born, you do not HAVE his birth certificate, you have a certified COPY of his birth certificate...the original documents (typically) remain filed at location of birth...

Is burning a copy a "felonious act"? Probably not...but if done deliberately it is certainly "harassment" and may even constitute assault depending on the circumstances...

Answer 3

No. He can always get another one from the county office where he was born.

Answer 4

No, just an inconvenience to him...

Answer 5

No
