§ 580-711. Modification of Convention child support order. (a) A
tribunal of this state may not modify a Convention child support order
if the obligee remains a resident of the foreign country where the
support order was issued unless:

(1) the obligee submits to the jurisdiction of a tribunal of this
state, either expressly or by defending on the merits of the case
without objecting to the jurisdiction at the first available
opportunity; or

(2) the foreign tribunal lacks or refuses to exercise jurisdiction to
modify its support order or issue a new support order.

(b) If a tribunal of this state does not modify a Convention child
support order because the order is not recognized in this state,
subdivision (c) of section 580-708 of this part applies.
