An administrative order under ORS 25.501 to 25.556 must be entered in accordance with the requirements of this rule:
- (1) If the administrative order establishes support or parentage and the child is not residing in a state financed or supported residence, shelter or other facility or institution (see ORS 25.517), the order must be entered in the circuit court in the county in which the child, or either parent of the child, resides.
- (2) If the administrative order establishes support or parentage and the child is residing in a state financed or supported residence, shelter or other facility or institution (see ORS 25.517) or resides out of state, the order must be entered in the circuit court in the county in which the obligor resides.
- (3) Except as provided in section (4), if the administrative order is one that modifies an underlying support order, the order must be entered in the circuit court in the same county as the underlying support order.
- (4) If there is a judicial proceeding pending at the time of finalizing an administrative order establishing support or parentage, the administrative order must be entered in the circuit court in the same county as the pending judicial proceeding.
- (5) If a court case includes an order or judgment establishing parentage, later orders and judgments addressing parentage or child support for the same parties may be entered in the same court case.
- (6) Nothing in this rule precludes filing liens in other Oregon counties pursuant to ORS 18.152 or transferring judgments pursuant to ORS 25.100 or 107.449.
