Applicants for Title IV-D child support services may hire private legal counsel to represent their interests. The IV-D agency will cooperate with private attorneys, to the extent that such cooperation does not compromise the interests of the state. Applicants and their attorneys shall keep the IV-D agency fully informed of any private proceedings. If applicants or their legal representatives engage in conduct that is deemed to be non-cooperative, the case shall be eligible for closure. The IV-D agency is under no obligation to litigate any matters filed prose by the custodial party or filed by a private attorney.
