2013 Idaho Statutes
Title 7 - SPECIAL PROCEEDINGS
Chapter 10 - UNIFORM INTERSTATE FAMILY SUPPORT ACT
Section 7-1053 - MODIFICATION OF CHILD SUPPORT ORDER OF ANOTHER STATE.
(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) Except as otherwise provided in section 7-1057, Idaho Code, 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 to support. If two (2) 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 section 7-1011, Idaho Code, 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 obligor's 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.
