Nebraska has a trial court system that includes district courts,
county courts, juvenile courts and the workers’ compensation
court. The district courts have jurisdiction on all types of civil
as well as criminal cases. However, they generally hear cases
that are beyond the purview of the lower courts. District courts
usually hear civil cases that involve over $51,000 in claims.
Criminal cases that these courts handle include felonies. Domestic
relations cases are also heard by district courts and they often
share jurisdiction on such cases with county courts.
Nebraska county courts hear some types of civil as well as criminal
cases. These usually include domestic relations, cases, probate
cases and civil claims. County courts handle civil cases that
involve claims of less than $51,000. These courts have exclusive
powers over probate matters and on cases involving juveniles.
The Nebraska juvenile courts hear cases of domestic relations
that deal with minors and issues such as care, abuse, support
and custody. The state has three juvenile courts. The workers’
compensation court handles cases arising from accidents occurring
at the workplace and also those involving illness. There are also
some problem solving courts such as the family drug court and
the young adult drug court. For Nebraska court records visit us
