AI Summary

  • Repeals sections 454.849 through 454.999 of Missouri Revised Statutes, which contained a version of the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act that was set to be replaced upon U.S. ratification of the 2007 Hague Convention on International Recovery of Child Support

  • The repealed provisions governed interstate child support proceedings, including establishment, enforcement, and modification of support orders across state lines

  • The repealed sections defined jurisdiction rules for tribunals handling support cases involving parties in different states, including personal jurisdiction over nonresidents

  • The provisions being removed included procedures for income withholding orders, registration of out-of-state support orders, and interstate cooperation between tribunals and support enforcement agencies

  • The repeal removes outdated statutory language that was contingent on the U.S. ratifying the Hague Convention, which has since occurred (ratified in 2016)
