1 31-MAR-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA)
provides uniform rules for the enforcement of family support orders. In 1996, as a condition

enact the 2008 amendments to the UIFSA during its 2015 legislative session as a condition
for continued receipt of federal funds supporting state child...
