REVISED UNIFORM RECIPROCAL ENFORCEMENT OF SUPPORT ACT (EXCERPT) Act 8 of 1952 780.156a Conditions to making demand upon governor; delaying or declining honoring of demand. Sec. 6a. (1) Before making the demand upon the governor of another state for the surrender of a person charged criminally in this state with failing to provide for the support of a person, the governor of this state may require any prosecuting attorney of this state to satisfy him or her that at least 60 days prior thereto the obligee initiated proceedings for support under this act or that any proceeding would be of no avail. (2) If, under a substantially similar act, the governor of another state makes a demand upon the governor of this state for the surrender of a person charged criminally in that state with failure to provide for the support of a person, the governor of this state may require any prosecuting attorney to investigate the demand and to report to him or her whether proceedings for support have been initiated or would be effective. If it appears to the governor that a proceeding would be effective but has not been initiated, he or she may delay honoring the demand for a reasonable time to permit the initiation of a proceeding. (3) If proceedings have been initiated and the person demanded has prevailed in those proceedings, the governor may decline to honor the demand. If the obligee prevailed and the person demanded is subject to a support order, the governor may decline to honor the demand if the person demanded is complying with the support order.
