XV.

1.

The entries in the Civil Registry which can be changed or corrected without a judicial order are those that involve clerical or typographical errors. No correction must involve the change of nationality, age, status, or sex of the petitioner.

2.

No. Since substantial change is involved, judicial order is necessary.
