Willis v. Levesque, 402 So. 2d 1003 (Ala. Civ. App. 1981). “Appellant submits the argument that the quoted statement in the divorce is a determination that he owed no duty of support, and for the court in this case to order support violates § 30-4-93 (b) of the Code of Alabama (1975).”
Ex Parte O'Neill, 420 So. 2d 264 (Ala. 1982). “As authority, appellant cites § 30-4-93 (b): "Any order of support issued by a court of this state when acting as a responding state shall not supersede any previous order of support issued in a divorce or separate maintenance action, but the amounts for a particular period paid…”
Murphy v. Murphy, 395 So. 2d 1047 (Ala. Civ. App. 1981). “§ 30-4-93 (b), Code of Alabama (1975). The appellant next claims that the trial court erred in setting the amount of support payable in the future at $30 per week.”
Brown v. Brown, 476 So. 2d 114 (Ala. Civ. App. 1985). “Hence, the Colorado judgment did not oust the Alabama court of continuing jurisdiction to modify or terminate its own child support provisions as were contained in the 1974 divorce judgment of the parties.”
In Re Ward, 188 B.R. 1002 (Bankr. M.D. Ala. 1995). “Alabama law on URESA actions is fairly well settled. Under the Uniform Reciprocal State Enforcement of Duty to Support Act, codified in Alabama at §§ 30-4-80 through 98, Alabama, as a "responding state" may have jurisdiction of the proceeding, § 30-4-93(a) and may modify future…”

State v. Dunn, 2090659 (ala.civ.app. 4-15-2011), 72 So. 3d 21 (Ala. Civ. App. 2011). “281 (repealed), and Ala.Code 1975, § 30-4-93(b) (repealed). Indeed, an appellate court in Florida has squarely held that the courts of that state lacked power under URESA to modify a child-support judgment entered by a sister state that had also enacted URESA.”
Nix v. Landers, 480 So. 2d 1 (Ala. Civ. App. 1985). “There are three issues presented in this appeal: (1) whether the trial court erred when it recognized a Florida Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support decree as determining the amount of past due child support, instead of honoring the original divorce decree; (2) whether the…”
