In re the Marriage of Peed

VOGEL, Judge.

Kip Peed appeals a district court ruling of a statutory assignment of child support to the State contending it is an impermissible retroactive modification of the dissolution decree. Kip argues the State’s attempt to seek retroactive payments to March 1995 is contrary to Iowa Code section 598.21(8) (1995) allowing retroactivity only to the date the notice of petition was filed. Because we find Iowa Code section 234.39(3) (1995) prevails over a decretal offset established for the convenience of the parties and no modification of support obligations has occurred, we affirm.
