Hawaii HB2088 modifies adoption consent rules, requiring notarized consent from the birthing parent, legal non-birthing parent, and others. It mandates notarized consent from the birthing parent, a legal non-birthing parent, and any person or agency with legal custody. It also requires consent from the court if the legal guardian is not empowered to consent. For children over ten, consent is required unless the court deems it unnecessary. For adults, notarized consent is needed from the adult and their spouse if married.
