252D.23 Filing of withholding order---order effective as district court order.

An income withholding order entered by the child support recovery unit pursuant to this chapter shall be filed with the clerk of the district court. For the purposes of demonstrating compliance by the employer, trustee, or other payor, the copy of the withholding order or the child support recovery unit's notice of the order received, whether or not the copy of the order is file-stamped, shall have all the force, effect, and attributes of a docketed order of the district court including, but not limited to, availability of contempt of court proceedings against an employer, trustee, or other payor for noncompliance. However, any information contained in the income withholding order or the child support recovery unit's notice of the order related to the amount of the accruing or accrued support obligation which does not reflect the correct amount of support due does not modify the underlying support judgment.
