Art. 1306.14. Notice to issuing tribunal of modification
Within thirty days after issuance of a modified child support order, the party
obtaining the modification shall file a certified copy of the order with the issuing tribunal that
had continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over the earlier order, and in each tribunal in which
the party knows the earlier order has been registered. A party who obtains the order and fails
to file a certified copy is subject to appropriate sanctions by a tribunal in which the issue of
failure to file arises. The failure to file does not affect the validity or enforceability of the
modified order of the new tribunal having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.
