The opinion
THOMAS, Circuit Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part:
I concur in the majority opinion in all but one respect. The record in this case is *696 devoid of any record of either the California or Idaho child support orders or judgments. Thus, it is impossible for me to ascertain which state has the controlling order pursuant to the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act. See Cal. Family Code §§ 4911 ; Idaho Code §§ 7-1010 . Thus, it is also impossible to determine whether the condition of supervised released negated the express terms of the operative state order. Thus, I would remand for further development of the record and reconsideration by the district court in light of our decision, without holding that the California court order is conclusive.
