OPINION

PORTLEY, Judge.

¶ 1 We are asked to determine whether the superior court can modify an out-of-state child custody order. We find that the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act requires that the family court must confer with the judge who issued the out-of-state custody order and/or get the out-of-state court to release its continuing jurisdiction over its custody order before modifying an out-of-state order.
