as otherwise provided in subsection (b), a tribunal of this state shall recognize and enforce
a registered Convention support order. (b) The following grounds are the only grounds on which
a tribunal of this state may refuse recognition and enforcement of a registered Convention
support order: (1) recognition and enforcement of the order is manifestly incompatible with
public policy, including the failure of the issuing tribunal to observe minimum standards
of due process, which include notice and an opportunity to be heard; (2) the issuing tribunal
lacked personal jurisdiction consistent with Section 30-3D-201; (3) the order is not enforceable
in the issuing country; (4) the order was obtained by fraud in connection with a matter of

30-3D-604
Section 30-3D-604 Choice of law. (a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (d), the law
of the issuing state or foreign country governs: (1) the nature, extent, amount, and duration
of current payments under a registered support order; (2) the computation and payment of arrearages

Section 30-3D-614 Notice to issuing tribunal of modification. Within 30 days after issuance
of a modified child-support order, the party obtaining the modification shall file a certified
copy of the order with the issuing tribunal that had continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over
the earlier order, and in each tribunal in which the party knows the earlier order has been

appropriate sanctions by a tribunal in which the issue of failure to file arises. The failure
to file does not affect the validity or enforceability of the modified order of the new tribunal
having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction. (Act 2015-284, §1.)...

Section 30-3D-207 Determination of controlling child-support order. (a) If a proceeding is
brought under this chapter and only one tribunal has issued a child-support order, the order
of that tribunal controls and must be recognized. (b) If a proceeding is brought under this
chapter, and two or more child-support orders have been issued by tribunals of this state,
another state, or a foreign country with regard to the same obligor and same child, a tribunal
of this state having personal jurisdiction over both the obligor and individual obligee shall
apply the following rules and by order shall determine which order controls and must be recognized:
(1) If only one of the tribunals would have continuing, exclusive jurisdiction under this
chapter, the order of that tribunal controls. (2) If more than one of the tribunals would
have continuing, exclusive jurisdiction under this chapter: (A) an order issued by a tribunal
in the current home state of the child controls; or (B) if an order...

30-3D-313
Section 30-3D-313 Costs and fees. (a) The petitioner may not be required to pay a filing fee
or other costs. (b) If an obligee prevails, a responding tribunal of this state may assess
against an obligor filing fees, reasonable attorney's fees, other costs, and necessary travel
and other reasonable expenses incurred by the obligee and the obligee's witnesses. The tribunal
may not assess fees, costs, or expenses against the obligee or the support enforcement agency
of either the initiating or responding state or foreign country, except as provided by other
law. Attorney's fees may be taxed as costs, and may be ordered paid directly to the attorney,
who may enforce the order in the attorney's own name. Payment of support owed to the obligee
has priority over fees, costs, and expenses. (c) The tribunal shall order the payment of costs
and reasonable attorney's fees if it determines that a hearing was requested primarily for
delay. In a proceeding under Article 6, a hearing is presumed to...
