Stewart v. Bennett, No. S-05-1100., SUPREME COURT OF NEBRASKA, February 2, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Due to the fact that Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-824 only provided for attorney fees for actions brought in bad faith, there was a public policy against awarding fees in actions that were not frivolous; therefore, a district court did not err by refusing to award attorney fees to a landowner in a lease dispute where the contract provided for such.

View this case - free  

Overview: In a dispute over child custody where Canada had jurisdiction, the UCCJEA, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 43-1226 to 43-1266, was not unconstitutional under Neb. Const. art. V, §§ 1, 9, 19 because the courts of Nebraska had uniform powers, and they were not deprived of the jurisdiction granted to them by the Nebraska Constitution.
