Section 117200 - [Operative until 7/1/2024] General Requirements
(a) A local child support agency shall establish parentage and/or a child support order by exercising long arm jurisdiction if paternity and support have not been established, but the facts of the case indicate that the requirements for asserting personal jurisdiction over the alleged parent in another state are met.
(b) In cases in which paternity must be established and an alleged father does not reside in California, a local child support agency shall obtain sufficient information to determine whether any basis exists upon which California can assert long arm jurisdiction over the alleged father.
(c) In making the determination described in subsections (a) and (b), the local child support agency shall review the case for any of the following factors which may give a tribunal personal jurisdiction:
(1) The noncustodial parent is personally served with notice within California.
(2) The noncustodial parent submits to the jurisdiction of California by consent, by entering a general appearance, or by filing a responsive document having the effect of waiving any contest to personal jurisdiction.
(3) The noncustodial parent resided with the child in California.
(4) The noncustodial parent formerly resided in California and provided prenatal expenses or support for the child.
(5) The child resides in California as a result of the acts or directives of the noncustodial parent.
(6) The noncustodial parent engaged in sexual intercourse in California and the child may have been conceived by that act of intercourse.
(7) The noncustodial parent has signed a voluntary declaration of paternity in California.
(8) Any other basis consistent with the constitutions of California and the United States for the exercise of personal jurisdiction.
(d) A local child support agency seeking to establish an order through the exercise of long arm jurisdiction shall be subject to the same due process requirements as cases where the noncustodial parent resides in California.
