Recognition of order modified in another state
Sec. 12. An Indiana tribunal shall recognize a modification of its
earlier child support order by a tribunal of another state that assumed
jurisdiction under a law substantially similar to this article. Upon
request, except as otherwise provided in this article, the Indiana
tribunal shall do the following:
(1) Enforce the order that was modified only as to amounts
accruing before the modification.
(2) Enforce only nonmodifiable aspects of the order.
(3) Provide other appropriate relief only for a violation of the
order that occurred before the effective date of the modification.
(4) Recognize the modifying order of the other state, upon
registration, for the purpose of enforcement.
As added by P.L.1-1997, SEC.10.
