Nebraska Landlord Bundle: 3 Kits in One Download (Nebraska Landlord Kit, Nebraska Small Claims Kit, Eviction Case File Organizer)

Who it is for

Landlords and property managers with rentals in Nebraska: the state's rules, a small claims case for unpaid rent or damage, and an eviction case file if it comes to that.

Not the right fit if

Your rentals aren't in Nebraska, or you only need one of the kits. Not a property management or legal service.

Why it is different

• 3 kits for 30% less than buying them one by one; each keeps its own folder in the download.
• The Nebraska kits are built only from our Nebraska data files: Nebraska data files, checked November 2026 against 9 official pages, among them Nebraska Legislature: 76-1416, Security deposits; prepaid rent; Nebraska Legislature: Neb.

• Nebraska Small Claims Court Kit. In Nebraska, small claims (Small Claims Court (County Court)) cover claims up to $7,500. From the official page: Judgments in small claims court may not exceed $7,500. Where and how to file, from the official pages: County where the defendant or defendant's agent resides; filing in the wrong court leads to dismissal and loss of filing fees and prepaid costs. Fees: small claims filing fee under Neb. Rev. Stat. 25-2804(2): $6.25 (Statutory small claims fee only; other county court costs and service fees apply. Total not confirmed.). Nebraska Judicial Branch says all court costs and service fees are subject to change and links to its Filing Fees and Court Costs schedule; sheriff/constable or process server fees are paid separately. Fee waiver: in forma pauperis affidavit DC 6:7.1. Service: Plaintiff chooses sheriff service or certified mail (form CC 4:5); process server also possible (plaintiff pays server). Sheriff/constable fees paid when filing. Lawyers can't represent a party at the hearing. Appeal: Either party may appeal within 30 days after judgment (see Nebraska Judicial Branch page 'Appealing or Setting Aside a County Court Civil or Small Claims Judgment'); a defendant with a default judgment may instead move to set it aside within 30 days. Lawyers allowed if case is transferred to regular county court docket. How to use the kit, the 8 confirmed Nebraska facts at a glance, what we couldn't confirm (online filing) with the page to check, and a yes/no checklist: is the amount under $7,500, is it the right court, is there someone to serve and something to collect from.
