§2657. Good cause; alternative arrangements
The court may elect not to render a child support order subject to immediate income withholding under this subchapter if:
                                     
                                [PL 2011, c. 528, §5 (AMD).]
              
                  1. 
                                Written agreement. 
                                A written agreement between the parties providing an alternative arrangement is filed with and approved by the court; or
                                     
                                
                [PL 1995, c. 694, Pt. B, §2 (NEW); PL 1995, c. 694, Pt. E, §2 (AFF).]
              
                  2. 
                                Demonstration of good cause. 
                                A party demonstrates and the court finds that there is good cause not to require immediate income withholding.  For purposes of this subsection, a finding of good cause by the court must be based on a determination that immediate income withholding would not be in the best interest of the child and a showing by the responsible parent that any previously ordered support was paid timely.  The court shall explain the basis for a finding of good cause in the support order.
