Court Adopts Amendment to Local Rule of Practice 31 Registration of a Foreign Decree of Support for Enforcement and/or Modification under the Uniform Family Support Act (UIFSA), R.C. 3115.01-3115.59.  The rule was modified to clarify that registration of a foreign support order or health care order does not necessarily vest the court with jurisdiction to enforce or modify the order.  It also clarifies that a petition to register a foreign child custody order must be filed as a separate action.
