Opinion
STONE (W. A.), J.
The primary issue presented by this appeal is whether, upon registration of a foreign support order with an accompanying statement of arrearage, a support obligor must challenge the alleged amount of unpaid support arrearage within 20 days of notice of the registration. The question requires an examination of sections 1697 through 1699 of the Code of Civil Procedure. We will conclude that a challenge to the amount of alleged arrearage is not precluded by the obligor’s failure to object within the 20-day period provided in section 1699, subdivision (b).
