When a support order or income-withholding order issued in another state or a foreign support order is registered, the registering tribunal of this state shall notify the nonregistering party. The notice must be accompanied by a copy of the registered order and the documents and relevant information accompanying the order.
The notice must inform the nonregistering party:
If the registering party asserts that two (2) or more orders are in effect, a notice must also:
Identify the two (2) or more orders and the order alleged by the registering party to be the controlling order and the consolidated arrearages, if any;
Notify the nonregistering party of the right to a determination of which is the controlling order;
State that the procedures provided in subsection (b) apply to the determination of which is the controlling order; and
State that failure to contest the validity or enforcement of the order alleged to be the controlling order in a timely manner may result in confirmation that the order is the controlling order.
Upon registration of an income-withholding order for enforcement, the support enforcement agency or the registering tribunal shall notify the obligor's employer pursuant to Sections 93-11-101 through 93-11-119.
