John:

I am probably stepping out of my realm of expertise here, but as I
understand it our state's Department of Child Support Services is one of
the biggest filers in our courts.  It is also a controlled group because
all child support must go through this agency rather than from the
father directly.  And, therefore, any time there is a change in child
support, a jurisdictional change, or other amendment that requires a
findings and orders, it must be submitted to a trial court. These
parents may primarily be served by US mail now, but I suggested that it
might be interesting to find out if some Child Support Services groups
are doing much primary (or personal) service. 

Having said that, I also asked the National Center to find out if there
is any agency or state interested in pursuing electronic primary
service.  If there is no potential customer at this time, this issue
should probably be pushed back to a later edition while we gain some
implementation experience.

From the results document:

"Christopher Smith recommended including child support cases as a
potential for primary electronic service because non-custodial parents
are required to register with the state child support agency."   

Aren't the child support agencies a category of administrative law
bodies rather than judicial entities? Should this topic be deferred
together with other administrative law agency actions until later in the
ECF 3.x adoption process?
