Section 15.125.720. Procedures for certain administrative actions involving support orders and paternity matters under AS 25.25.

	(a)  Establishment of a support order by the agency under AS 25.25.401 is governed by the provisions of AS 25.25,  AS 25.27,  and this chapter that are applicable to the agency's administrative establishment of a support obligation.  
	(b)  If a support order issued in another state is registered with the agency for modification under AS 25.25.609 and 25.25.610 and if modification is permitted under AS 25.25.611 or AS 25.25.613, modification of that support order is governed by the administrative procedures set out in AS 25.27.190 and by the provisions of this chapter that relate to administrative modification of a support order.  
	(c)  Proceedings under AS 25.25.402 for agency establishment or disestablishment of paternity are governed by the provisions of AS 25.25,  AS 25.27,  and this chapter regarding the proceedings.  However, the agency may serve as a tribunal in a proceeding under AS 25.25.402 to determine the parentage of a child only if the parentage of the child has not been previously determined.  
	(d)  For purposes of (c) of this section, the parentage of a child has been previously determined if any of the following conditions exist:  
		(1) there has been an adjudication of paternity by a court, quasi-judicial entity, or administrative agency of this or another state;  
		(2) there is a signed acknowledgment of paternity that creates a conclusive presumption of paternity under the law of the state in which the acknowledgement was completed;  
		(3) a support order has been entered by a court, quasi-judicial entity, or administrative agency of another state requiring the putative father to pay support for the child.
