A tribunal of this state may enforce a child support order of another state registered for purposes of modification, in the same manner as if the order had been issued by a tribunal of this state, but the registered support order may be modified only if the requirements of section 14-5-611 or 14-5-613 have been met.

C.R.S. § 14-5-610

L. 93: Entire article R&RE, p. 1599, § 1, effective January 1, 1995. L. 2003: Entire section amended, p. 1260, § 39, effective July 1, 2004. L. 2015: Entire part amended, (HB 15-1198), ch. 173, p. 559, § 31, effective July 1.

COMMENT

An order issued in another state registered for purposes of modification may be enforced in the same manner as an order registered for purposes of enforcement. But, the power of the forum tribunal to modify a child-support order of another tribunal is limited by the specific factual preconditions set forth in Sections 611 and 613.
