Statute Text
Modification of child support order of another state.
(1) If ORS 110.636 does not apply,
upon petition a tribunal of this state may modify a child support order issued
in another state that is registered in this state if, after notice and hearing,
the tribunal finds that:
(a) The following
requirements are met:
(A) Neither the
child, nor the obligee who is an individual nor the obligor resides in the
issuing state;
(B) A petitioner
who is a nonresident of this state seeks modification; and
(C) The
respondent is subject to the personal jurisdiction of the tribunal of this
state; or
(b) This state is
the residence of the child, or a party who is an individual is subject to the
personal jurisdiction of the tribunal of this state, and all of the parties who
are individuals have filed consents in a record in the issuing tribunal for a tribunal
of this state to modify the support order and assume continuing, exclusive
jurisdiction.
(2) Modification
of a registered child support order is subject to the same requirements,
procedures and defenses that apply to the modification of an order issued by a
tribunal of this state, and the order may be enforced and satisfied in the same
manner.
(3) A tribunal of
this state may not modify any aspect of a child support order that may not be
modified under the law of the issuing state, including the duration of the
obligation of support. If two or more tribunals have issued child support
orders for the same obligor and same child, the order that controls and must be
so recognized under ORS 110.533 establishes the aspects of the support order
which are nonmodifiable.
(4) In a
proceeding to modify a child support order, the law of the state that is
determined to have issued the initial controlling order governs the duration of
the obligation of support. The obligors fulfillment of the duty of support
established by that order precludes imposition of a further obligation of
support by a tribunal of this state.
(5) On the
issuance of an order by a tribunal of this state modifying a child support
order issued in another state, the tribunal of this state becomes the tribunal
having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.
(6)
Notwithstanding subsections (1) to (5) of this section and ORS 110.518 (2), a
tribunal of this state retains jurisdiction to modify an order issued by a
tribunal of this state if:
(a) One party
resides in another state; and
(b) The other
party resides outside the United States. [2015 c.298 §56]
