"Valid legal reasons" workaround?

Post by PianosiDiFano »

Hi all!
Am having some trouble with an ufficio dello stato civile. I am trying to obtain some records from pre 1900 which, in any common sense, should by now be public information!
But this particular office insists they cannot issue it without a valid legal reason. I have the exact dates, locations, and names of all the people.

Is their any workaround for this or do I simply wait for some hopeful change?

Would love any help,
Charlie

You might say you need it for inheritance issues.
However, even if they believe you, they might send you certificates, instead of copies of the records

Unlikely, since I've already once requested the record unfortunately. They probably will never respond to me, but this is a helpful option for the future! Thank you😃
