23 Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes § 7501.5 - Contest By Obligor

§ 7501.5. Contest by obligor.

An obligor may contest the validity or enforcement of an income-withholding order issued in another state and received directly by an employer in this State in the same manner as if the order had been issued by a tribunal of this State. Section 7604 (relating to choice of law) applies to such a contest. The obligor shall give notice of the contest to:

(1) a support enforcement agency providing services to the obligee;

(2) each employer that has directly received an income-withholding order; and

(3) the person or agency designated to receive payments in the income-withholding order or, if no person or agency is designated, to the obligee.

(Dec. 16, 1997, P.L.549, No.58, eff. Jan. 1, 1998)
