This Nebraska bill (LB 935) allows courts to award attorney fees and costs to local governments when they face frivolous or harassing lawsuits. It specifically targets claims against "political subdivisions" (cities, counties, school districts, and other local entities) that lack legal merit or are filed solely to delay or harass public officials. The law requires courts to hold a separate hearing to determine if a claim or defense was frivolous before ordering fees, with exceptions for good-faith legal arguments or prompt dismissals. Local governments can request these fees as a motion or claim, and courts may award them in addition to other judgments. The policy aims to prevent wasteful use of taxpayer resources on baseless litigation.
