This bill amends section 48-1714 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to the penalties associated with violations of the Farm Labor Contractors Act. The amendment changes the language from "violating" to "who violates" for clarity and establishes that any person found guilty of violating sections 48-1711 or 48-1712 will be classified as a Class II misdemeanor. Additionally, it outlines specific actions that constitute a Class II misdemeanor, such as intentionally defacing a farm labor contractor license or acting as a contractor without a license.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new provision that imposes a penalty for seed corn producers and farm labor contractors who violate section 48-1715, categorizing such violations as a Class IV misdemeanor. The original section 48-1714 is set to be repealed, streamlining the legal framework surrounding these penalties.
