        252D.19A  DISPARITY BETWEEN ORDER AND PAY DATES -- NOT
      DELINQUENT.
         1.  An obligor whose support payments are automatically withheld
      from the obligor's paycheck shall not be delinquent or in arrears if
      all of the following conditions are met:
         a.  Any delinquency or arrearage is caused solely by a
      disparity between the schedules of the obligor's regular pay dates
      and the scheduled date the support is due.
         b.  The amount calculated to be withheld is such that the
      total amount of current support to be withheld from the paychecks of
      the obligor and the amount ordered to be paid in the support order
      are the same on an annual basis.
         c.  The automatic deductions for support are continuous and
      occurring.
         2.  If the unit takes an enforcement action during a calendar year
      against an obligor and the obligor is not delinquent or in arrears
      solely due to the applicability of this section to the obligor, upon
      discovering the circumstances, the unit shall promptly discontinue
      the enforcement action.
