§ 2a:17-56.

a. If an income withholding initiated by the Probation Division is required pursuant

to section 3 of P.L.1981, c. 417 ( C.2A:17-56.9 ), the Probation Division shall notify the obligor of the income withholding by regular mail to the obligor's last known address. The notice to the obligor shall be mailed at the same time as the notice to the payor , and shall inform the obligor that the withholding has commenced in accordance with section 314 of Pub.L.104-193. The notice to the obligor shall also include all of the information regarding the

withholding that is included in the notice to the payor . An obligor may contest a withholding only on the basis of mistake of fact. The notice to the obligor shall include but need not be limited to: the amount to be withheld, including an amount to be applied

toward liquidation of arrearages; a statement that the withholding applies to current

and subsequent sources of income; the methods available for contesting the withholding

on the grounds that the withholding is not proper because of mistake of fact; the

period within which the Probation Division may be contacted in order to contest the withholding ; and the procedures to follow if the obligor desires to contest the withholding

on the grounds that the withholding or the amount thereof is improper due to a mistake

of fact . If an obligor contests the proposed withholding, the Probation Division shall schedule a hearing or review within 20 days after receiving notice of contest of the withholding. If it is determined that the withholding is to continue , the Probation Division shall provide notice to the obligor. Notice to the obligor shall include all of the information that is included in the notice to the payor in section

5 of P.L.1981, c. 417 ( C.2A:17-56.11 ) . The Probation Division shall notify the obligor of the results of the hearing or review within five days of the date of the hearing or review . b. If the court enters an order modifying alimony, maintenance or child support , the Probation Division shall amend the income withholding amount accordingly. This income withholding shall have priority over any other withholdings and garnishments without regard to the dates that the other income withholdings or garnishments were issued . c. An income withholding made under P.L.1981, c. 417 ( C.2A:17-56.8 et seq. ) shall continue until terminated by a court . d. Where there is more than one support order for withholding against a single obligor,

the payor shall withhold the payments to fully comply with the court orders on a pro

rata basis to the extent that the total amount withheld from the obligor's income does not exceed the limits allowed under section 303(b) of the federal Consumer Credit

Protection Act ( 15 U.S.C. s. 1673(b) ). Payors may combine withheld amounts in a single payment for each appropriate probation

department requesting withholding and separately identify the portion of the payment

which is attributable to each obligor unless submitted pursuant to section 7 of P.L.1981, c. 417 ( C.2A:17-56.13 ) or through the use of electronic funds transfer . 1
