b. The child custody determination for which enforcement is sought has been vacated, stayed, or modified by a court of a state having jurisdiction to do so under Article 2; or

c. The respondent was entitled to notice, but notice was not given in accordance with the standards of Section 30-3B-108, in the proceedings before the court that issued the order for which enforcement is sought; or

(2) The child custody determination for which enforcement is sought was registered and confirmed under Section 30-3B-305, but has been vacated, stayed, or modified by a court of a state having jurisdiction to do so under Article 2.

(b) The court may award the fees, costs, and expenses authorized under Section 30-3B-312 and may grant additional relief, and set a further hearing to determine whether additional relief is appropriate.
