Opinion
February 3, 1994
Appeal from the Family Court, Nassau County (Salvatore R. Mosca, J.).
The court rendering an order of child support maintains continuing jurisdiction over any support proceeding brought until the judgment is satisfied (Family Ct Act § 451; Matter of Palmer v. Palmer, 128 A.D.2d 620). Petitioner's initiation of a proceeding in New Jersey under the Uniform Support of Dependents Law (USDL; Domestic Relations Law art 3-A) for enforcement of a New York support order was an additional remedy and did not deprive her of any other available remedy (Domestic Relations Law § 41 [1]; Sharp v. Sharp, 161 A.D.2d 624, lv dismissed 76 N.Y.2d 889). Thus, the Nassau County Family Court did not relinquish jurisdiction as the USDL proceeding and the proceeding appealed from herein could be maintained simultaneously (Matter of Minch v. Minch, 117 A.D.2d 737).
