Indiana Code - Family Law and Juvenile Law - Title 31, Section 31-18-5-2

Administrative enforcement of orders

Sec. 2. (a) Whenever enforcement is sought for:
(1) a support order;
(2) an income withholding order; or
(3) both;
issued in a Title IV-D case by a tribunal of another state, documents
required for registering the order may be sent to the Title IV-D
agency of Indiana.
(b) Upon receipt of the documents, the Title IV-D agency, without
initially seeking to register the order, shall consider and, if
appropriate, use any administrative procedure authorized by Indiana
law to enforce a support order or an income withholding order or
both.
(c) If the obligor does not contest administrative enforcement, the
Title IV-D agency is not required to register the order. If no
administrative procedure authorized by Indiana law is used, the Title
IV-D agency shall send the documents required for registering the
order to the appropriate Title IV-D agency.
