Yes. If he is 18, then those papers are his. You cannot legally withhold someone's property.

I can't think of any important papers that can't be obtained from the original source. Why do you want mothers copies. School records are at the school etc.

I cant imagine any papers that you couldn't get that mom is keeping from you that you couldn't get as a matter of record. Report cards, medical records, legal documents. These things can be obtained through the schools or places of business.

at the risk of sounding flip
I think its going to depend on what the papers are and to whom they are important, it will also depend on who "owns" the papers.
More details are needed to really give any decent answer
sounds like you may be talking about school transcripts??? Call the school and ask for a copy.

Once a child is of age, he or she can obtain these same documents through the Freedom of Information Act.

i don't believe it's illegal but when you become of age you can order those papers yourself. copies of birth certificate, social security card, etc. just contact those agencies, fill out some paper work and you'll have whatever you need in 6-8 weeks.

No, it is not against the law. It is probably unethical, but I'd have to know a LOT more from both sides.

I don't know about lawfully but I think morally would be the more important question. I think it would be morally wrong if they are"important" papers.

I don't think so, unless it was medical records or something like that.
