The Tribal Court may modify its own order as long as it has continuing jurisdiction, and may modify a foreign child support order if:

(a) The Tribal Court has jurisdiction over the nonmovant, and the party or support enforcement agency seeking modification registers the order with the Tribal Court; and

(b) The issuing jurisdiction no longer has continuing, exclusive jurisdiction of the child support order because it is no longer the residence of the child or any individual contestant; or

(c) Each contestant has filed written consent with the state or tribe having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction for a court of another state or tribe to modify the order and assume continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over the order. [Ord. 50 § 8.2(1)(C), adopted, 3/23/2017.]
