Sec. 17. (a) If there is more than one (1) order for withholding against a single obligor under this chapter and the obligor has insufficient disposable earnings to pay the amount required by all the orders, the income payor shall:

(1) honor all withholdings to the extent that the total amount withheld does not exceed the limits imposed under 15 U.S.C. § 1673(b); and

(2) distribute the withheld income pro rata among the persons entitled to receive income under the income withholding orders, giving priority to orders for current child support.

     (b) The income payor may not distribute income under subsection (a) in a manner that would result in one (1) of the current child support obligations not being honored.
