Section 14-13-306 - Enforcement of registered determination(1) A court of this state may grant any relief normally available under the law of this state to enforce a registered child-custody determination made by a court of another state.(2) A court of this state shall recognize and enforce, but may not modify, except in accordance with part 2 of this article, a registered child-custody determination of a court of another state.L. 2000: Entire article R&RE, p. 1533, § 1, effective July 1.This section is similar to former §§ 14-13-115 and 14-13-116, as they existed prior to 2000.
OFFICIAL COMMENT
A registered child-custody determination can be enforced as if it was a child-custody determination of this State. However, it remains a custody determination of the State that issued it. A registered custody order is not subject to modification unless the State would have jurisdiction to modify the order under Part 2.
