Yes, I have recent experience. I was unsuccessful. NY law is extremely rigid in this regard. Essentially you might be successful if a physician testifies that it is a medical emergency. I had an attorney petition the court. It was over a year since they could find my records (1954) and then 3 months to get what looked like a law clerk's standard letter of NO. I would have been better off send my money to one of the organizations in NY trying to get the law changed. Sorry to give you a dismal picture. Make sure you are on the adoption registry and pray for something.
