on a finding that a petitioner is entitled to immediate physical custody of the child, the court shall order that the petitioner may take
immediate physical custody of the child unless the respondent establishes that

jurisdiction to do so under AS 25.30.300 - 25.30.390 or provisions substantially similar to AS 25.30.300 - 25.30.390; or
(C) the respondent was entitled to notice, but notice was not given in accordance with AS 25.30.840 or provisions substantially
similar to AS 25.30.330 - 25.30.390 in the proceedings before the court that
issued the order for which enforcement is sought; or

to do so under AS 25.30.300 - 25.30.390 or provisions substantially similar to AS 25.30.300 - 25.30.390.

inference from the refusal.
