The Title IV-D agency may utilize the FPLS in accordance with 42 USC 653 and 45 CFR § 303.70. All information obtained is subject to federal and state laws regarding confidentiality of information.
Neither parties nor their respective private legal representative may apply directly to the SPLS for FPLS information in parental kidnapping and child custody cases. Parties or their respective legal representative may, however, petition a state district court to request location information from the FPLS concerning the absconding parent and missing child. A party can request appropriate state officials who are authorized persons to make a locate request. A state district court may request FPLS information in connection with a child custody determination in adoption and parental rights determination cases.
