(a) Any protection order issued by another jurisdiction must be given full faith and credit throughout the territory and enforced as if it were issued in the territory for as long as the order is in effect in the issuing jurisdiction. A person entitled to protection under a protection order issued by another jurisdiction may file such order with the Court by filing a certified copy of the order. The person shall swear under oath in an affidavit, to the best of the person’s knowledge that the order is presently in effect as written. Upon request by a law enforcement agency, the Clerk of the Court shall provide a certified copy of the protection order issued by the other jurisdiction.
(b) A Peace Officer shall deem valid, and enforce in accordance with section 116, a copy of a protection order issued by another jurisdiction which has been provided to the peace officer by any source; if the officer is also provided with a statement by the person protected by the order that such order remains in effect. Peace Officers may rely on such statement by the person protected by such order.
