(b) The tribunal may issue a temporary child support order if the tribunal determines that the order is appropriate and the individual ordered to pay is: (1) A presumed parent of the child; (2) Petitioning to have parentage adjudicated; (3) Identified as the parent of the child through genetic testing; (4) An alleged parent who has declined to submit to genetic testing; (5) Shown by clear and convincing evidence to be the parent of the child; (6) An acknowledged parent as provided by section 584A-403; (7) The individual who gave birth to the child; or (8) An individual who has been ordered to pay child support in a previous proceeding and the order has not been reversed or vacated.
