LB 1225 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change provisions of the Nebraska Juvenile Code relating to expedited appeals of motions to transfer to county or district court

LB 1225 modifies Nebraska's juvenile court process by establishing an expedited appeal timeline for decisions transferring cases to adult court. It requires the Court of Appeals to review such appeals within 90 days of filing, advancing them on the docket without standard extensions. This applies directly to juveniles facing transfer motions under Section 43-274, ensuring faster resolution of whether their case remains in juvenile court. The change aims to reduce delays in these sensitive proceedings while maintaining the juvenile court's authority to issue temporary orders during appeals.
