This bill allows attorneys in Nebraska to make unsworn declarations under penalty of perjury as a substitute for sworn declarations in certain legal contexts. Specifically, it stipulates that whenever a sworn declaration, verification, certificate, statement, oath, or affidavit is required from an attorney representing a party in an action (excluding depositions, oaths of office, or oaths required before specific officials other than notaries), the attorney can instead provide an unsworn declaration. This declaration must be subscribed by the attorney, affirming its truthfulness under penalty of perjury, and must include the date and signature of the attorney.

The bill also outlines the specific language that must be used in these unsworn declarations, differentiating between those executed inside and outside of Nebraska. For declarations executed outside the state, the language includes a statement affirming the truthfulness under Nebraska law, while the language for those executed within the state includes a similar affirmation without the reference to state laws. This change aims to streamline the process for attorneys and reduce the need for formal sworn statements in certain legal situations.
