tribunal of this State, either expressly or by defending on the merits of the
case without objecting to the jurisdiction at the first available opportunity;
or
(b) The foreign tribunal lacks or refuses to
exercise jurisdiction to modify its support order or issue a new support order.

of this State does not modify a Convention child-support order because the
