216 R.I. Code R. 216-RICR-10-10-1.11
When the State Registrar shall determine that any vital record was registered improperly, such as through fraud, misrepresentation or duplication, the registrar shall give written notice to the registrant or informant of his/her intention to void said certificate. This notice shall give such person an opportunity to appear and show cause why the certificate should not be voided. The notice shall be served on such person by certified mail, return receipt requested, to his/her last known address on file in the Office. Unless such person shall demonstrate to the State Registrar within thirty (30) days after the date of mailing that there is satisfactory cause that the certificate should not be voided, the State Registrar shall void the certificate and it shall not be available for certification. Neither the State nor local registrar shall issue copies until the matter is resolved.
