This bill amends section 25-2228 of the Revised Statutes Cumulative Supplement, 2024, to update the provisions regarding the publication of legal notices. It introduces new options for legal publication, allowing notices to be published not only in traditional print newspapers but also on the website or application of a digital news publication if the latter does not have a print counterpart. The bill specifies that legal notices must be published once a week in a qualifying newspaper or on a digital platform for the required number of days or weeks. Additionally, it mandates that starting October 1, 2022, all legal notices must also be posted on a statewide website maintained by a majority of Nebraska newspapers, although failure to do so will not invalidate the original publication.

The bill also repeals the original section 25-2228, indicating a complete overhaul of the existing legal framework for publishing notices. The changes aim to modernize the process of legal notice publication, reflecting the growing importance of digital media in disseminating information to the public.
