Section 546-B:8 Enforcement and Modification of Support Order by Tribunal Having Continuing Jurisdiction.


   I. A tribunal of this state may serve as an initiating tribunal to request a tribunal of another state to enforce or modify a support order issued in that state.
   II. A tribunal of this state having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over a support order may act as a responding tribunal to enforce or modify the order. If a party subject to the continuing, exclusive jurisdiction of the tribunal no longer resides in the issuing state, in subsequent proceedings the tribunal may apply RSA 546-B:27, relative to special rules of evidence and procedure, to receive evidence from another state and RSA 546-B:29, assistance with discovery, to obtain discovery through a tribunal of another state.
   III. A tribunal of this state which lacks continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over a spousal support order may not serve as a responding tribunal to modify a spousal support order of another state.
