Vermont S0210 allows individuals to petition the Superior Court for access to autopsy reports if they are not authorized recipients.

Vermont S0210 modifies access to autopsy reports by requiring the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner to disclose reports to authorized individuals, such as the personal representative of the decedent. It also allows individuals not authorized to receive the report to petition the Probate Division of the Superior Court for access. The petition must include an affidavit detailing the petitioner's relationship to the decedent and the reason for seeking the report. If the court finds a legitimate reason, it orders the Chief Medical Examiner to provide a copy.
