claimant attorney's name and address, if necessary to generate the appropriate notices.
The "Generate Notices" screen automatically creates a written notice to satisfy this requirement. The notices may be

own system.

An email notice will be automatically generated to the CSE agency for Rhode Island as well as to the claims adjuster

All states have new administrative lien and subpoena powers enacted into law by the U.S. Congress in 1996. State Child Support
agencies can issue subpoenas administratively to any person, business or entity to determine assets and access personal information
belonging to persons who owe child support. States can issue liens and levies administratively against the assets of delinquent
parents in order to collect past due support. In addition, Congress required all states pass legislation that recognizes each
state's administrative authority and powers across state lines. Thus, the States belonging to the Child Support Lien Network are
operating under new law in order to discover insurance claim data.
