Interim study to examine Nebraska's protection order statutes

This resolution requests an interim study of Nebraska's protection order statutes. The Judiciary Committee will examine how these laws developed, how they are currently used (including filing data and types of requests), and whether protection orders should apply to juveniles. The study will gather input from individuals who have navigated or administered the protection order process. This is a procedural step only - it does not change existing laws but may inform future legislative decisions. The committee will report its findings and recommendations to the Legislature after completing the study.
