Legal Question in Family Law in Utah

Divorce decree and moving to new state

What happens to the divorce decree when both parents move to a new state? My husband was divorced in Nevada and we recently moved to Utah for a new job. His children and their Mother have been living in NV and are now moving to UT. Does UT automatically recognize the NV decree or do we need to go to court in UT?

It will need to be registered in Utah. It is not difficult especially if there is no dispute. Feel free to contact me if you would like help.
