On our Nebraska Custody page, we created the new subsection Steps to file for custody, which reorganized the steps into six separate questions, making it easier for users to find the information they need:
- Considerations before filing
- Step 1: Prepare for the case
- Step 2: File and serve the custody petition
- Step 3: Preliminary court dates
- Step 4: Reach an agreement or go to trial
- Step 5: Options if you disagree with the order
These questions explain the usual stages in a custody case and cross-link to other relevant information on our website.
We also reorganized the page to make it easier for users to find the information they are looking for by doing the following:
- We moved the question Can a parent who has committed violence or is a registered sex offender get custody? to the new subsection called Who can get custody and visitation subsection; and
- We moved the question If I move to a new state, can I transfer my child custody case there? to the new subsection called After an order is in place.
Changes made in English and Spanish!
