Section 20-6-209 - Procedures to stay income withholding
(a) Within twenty (20) days from the date of service of the notice of delinquency the obligor may file with the clerk a petition to stay service of the income withholding order. The petition to stay shall include the obligor's name, social security number, address, employer and employer's address. The obligor shall mail a copy of the petition to the obligee, or to the obligee's representative if the notice of delinquency was filed by someone other than the obligee, and to the department in all cases being enforced by the department. The obligor shall move for a hearing on the petition within five (5) days of filing the petition or the petition shall be denied. The income withholding order shall not be served on the payor until either a hearing has been deemed denied or until after a hearing has been held on the petition and the court has determined that the income withholding will become effective.
(b) The grounds for the petition to stay service shall be limited to disputes concerning:
(i) The amount of current support or arrearage; or
(ii) The identity of the alleged obligor named in the income withholding order.
(c) If a petition to stay service states the grounds required by subsection (b) of this section, and has been filed as provided by subsection (a) of this section, and the obligor has moved for a hearing, the court shall set the matter for hearing and notify the obligor, the obligee or the obligee's representative if the notice of delinquency was filed by someone other than the obligee of the time and place of the hearing. In all cases being enforced by the department, the department shall be given notice. The court shall hear and decide the dispute and notify the obligor of its determination within forty-five (45) days from the date the notice of delinquency was served on all parties entitled to notice.
