Five-Year Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation

DAR File No.: 41725
Filed: 06/02/2017 08:29:21 AM

NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule is enacted under Section 78B-12-203 which requires each parent to provide verification of current income for the purpose of calculating the amount of a child support award under Utah�s child support guidelines, and Section 78B-12-201 which permits the moving party in a child support action to submit the best evidence available concerning the other party's income if the financial verification required under Section 78B-12-203 is not available. It also requires that the evidence be provided in affidavit form and that a copy of the affidavit be provided to the other party before the evidence is submitted. This rule defines "best evidence available" and describes the method of providing the affidavit to the other party.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There have been no comments received since the last five-year review of the rule.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The statutes under which this rule is enacted are still in effect. They describes what is meant by "best evidence available", and specifies the method for providing the non-moving party with an affidavit describing the evidence before the evidence is used in determining the amount of a child support award. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
