Section 580-507. Administrative enforcement of orders


Latest version.
  • (a) A party seeking
      to enforce a support order or  an  income-withholding  order,  or  both,
      issued  by  a  tribunal of another state may send the documents required
      for registering the order to a support enforcement agency of this state.
        (b) Upon receipt of the documents,  the  support  enforcement  agency,
      without  initially seeking to register the order, shall consider and, if
      appropriate, use any administrative procedure authorized by the  law  of
      this state to enforce a support order or an income-withholding order, or
      both.  If  the  obligor does not contest administrative enforcement, the
      order need not be registered. If the obligor contests  the  validity  or
      administrative  enforcement of the order, the support enforcement agency
      shall register the order pursuant to this article.
