Nevada § 130.205 - Continuing, exclusive jurisdiction of tribunal that has issued child-support order; becoming initiating tribunal to request modification of child-support order

§ 130.205. Continuing, exclusive jurisdiction of tribunal that has issued child-support order; becoming initiating tribunal to request modification of child-support order

1. A tribunal of this State that has issued a child-support order consistent with

the law of this State has and shall exercise continuing and exclusive jurisdiction

to modify its child-support order if the order is the controlling order and: (a) At the time of the filing of a request for modification, this State is the residence

of the obligor, the obligee who is a natural person or the child for whose benefit

the support order is issued; or (b) Even if this State is not the residence of the obligor, the obligee who is a natural

person or the child for whose benefit the support order is issued, the parties consent

in a record or in open court that the tribunal of this State may continue to exercise

jurisdiction to modify its order. 2. A tribunal of this State that has issued a child-support order consistent with

the law of this State may not exercise continuing and exclusive jurisdiction to modify

its child-support order if: (a) All of the parties who are natural persons file consent in a record with the tribunal

of this State that a tribunal of another state that has jurisdiction over at least

one of the parties who is a natural person or that is located in the state of residence

of the child may modify the order and assume continuing and exclusive jurisdiction;

or (b) Its order is not the controlling order. 3. If a tribunal of another state has issued a child-support order pursuant to the

Uniform Interstate Family Support Act or a law substantially similar to that Act which

modifies a child-support order of a tribunal of this State, tribunals of this State

shall recognize the continuing and exclusive jurisdiction of the tribunal of the other

state. 4. A tribunal of this State that lacks continuing and exclusive jurisdiction to modify

a child-support order may serve as an initiating tribunal to request a tribunal of

another state to modify a support order issued in that state. 5. A temporary support order issued ex parte or pending resolution of a jurisdictional

conflict does not create continuing and exclusive jurisdiction in the issuing tribunal.
