The Administrative Court dismissed the appeal against the Social Board's decision to examine a request for withholding child support. The Social Board had previously granted support based on non-payment of maintenance and thus acquired the right to collect all outstanding support from the obligor. However, the Board lacked jurisdiction to review the request for withholding support because the support had been granted by a different municipality's Social Board. The court ruled that jurisdiction to examine such withholding requests belongs exclusively to the municipality that originally granted the support, not the one collecting arrears.
