Re: One state not recognizing another

You have some very complex issues with regard to jurisdiction and the child support order. I strongly suggest you talk to an attorney, in California, in the county that is doing the collection. I will be difficult to walk through this maze. Any answer given with the facts that you have prevented without an in depth analysis would be only a guess. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
