Agenda Item Text:
Approve Fiscal Year 2026 grant funding/reimbursement between the Cochise County Superior Court and the Arizona Department of Economic Security for reimbursable paternity and child support activities, in the amount of $2,952.96, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026.
Background:
The purpose of this grant funding is to facilitate and expedite actions to establish paternity and to establish, modify, or enforce child support orders and medical insurance obligations in the Superior Court by designating judicial officers to adjudicate IV-D cases. The Arizona Department of Economic Security will reimburse 66% of costs incurred to adjudicate IV-D cases. The remaining 34% of expenses are paid from general fund.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
The Court shall submit monthly Certified Public Expenditures Statement and IV-D Compensation Forms to the Arizona Department of Economic Security for reimbursement requests.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
No reimbursement to adjudicate Title IV-D cases and the full cost would be paid with General Fund monies.
