Welcome to the Nebraska District Court Jury Instructions Database. This Program is administered by the 4th District Court of Nebraska and the Douglas-Omaha Technology Commission (DOT.Comm). These Jury Instructions are intended for use by Nebraska Trial Judges, their Bailiffs, Court Administration Staff, and Law Clerks. The instructions contained in this database are work product of the judge before whom the case was tried. In some instances, the database may contain one or more draft versions of a particular instruction rather than the final version submitted to the jury and filed with the District Court Clerk. The instructions in this database HAVE NOT BEEN SHEPARDIZED to determine whether there has been any subsequent interpretation of the instructions' validity by the appellate courts of Nebraska or the federal courts.
