Abstract:
On February 27, 1995, President Clinton issued Executive Order 12953, "Actions Required of all Executive Agencies to Facilitate Payment of Child Support." The Executive Order is designed to make federal agencies "Model Employers" for child support enforcement. The Order directed DoD and other federal agencies to study methods of improving service of process for child support enforcement on their employees and uniformed members, with particular emphasis on improving overseas service of process. DoD and the other federal agencies conducted reviews and submitted reports. This paper analyzes the recommendations in the reports. The analysis includes a review of military policies on assisting with service of process for child support enforcement and an overview of relevant laws. The paper proposes alternative recommendations and synthesizes them with the DoD and other agency recommendations into a unified approach. The unified approach would efficiently remove barriers to service of process on military members. DoD adoption of the unified approach would promote current military policies and place DoD in a leadership position amongst federal agencies for child support enforcement and model employer status.
