Effect of order for assignment; duty of income payer to cooperate; modification of amount assigned; reimbursement of income payer; refusal of income payer to honor assignment; discharge of liability of income payer to pay amount assigned

1. An order for an assignment issued pursuant to NRS 31A.250 to 31A.330, inclusive, operates as an assignment and is binding upon any existing or future income payer of an obligor upon whom a copy of the order is served by first-class mail or electronically. The order may be modified or revoked at any time by the court. 2. To enforce the obligation for support, the income payer shall cooperate with and provide relevant information concerning the obligor to the person entitled to the support or that person’s legal representative. A disclosure made in good faith pursuant to this subsection does not give rise to any action for damages for the disclosure. 3. If the order for support is amended or modified, the person entitled to the payment of support or that person’s legal representative shall notify the income payer of the obligor to modify the amount to be withheld accordingly. 4. To reimburse the income payer for the costs incurred by the income payer in making the payment pursuant to the assignment, the income payer may deduct $3 from the amount paid to the obligor each time the income payer makes a payment. 5. If an income payer wrongfully refuses to honor an assignment or knowingly misrepresents the income of an obligor, the court, upon request of the person entitled to the support or that person’s legal representative, may enforce the assignment in the manner provided in NRS 31A.095 for the enforcement of the withholding of income. 6. Compliance by an income payer with an order of assignment operates as a discharge of the liability of the income payer to the obligor as to that portion of the income of the obligor affected.
