About Nebraska Exhibit Requirements
Nebraska uses a UNIQUE unified numerical marking system where ALL exhibits are marked in numerical order regardless of which party offers them. The same number is NEVER given to more than one exhibit. Numbering begins with the first hearing and continues until final disposition. Nebraska has a separate E-Exhibits System for staging, submitting, marking, offering, and storing exhibits.
Court rules and e-filing requirements change frequently. Verify current requirements with your local court clerk or official court website before filing. This content is for general reference only and does not constitute legal advice.

Nebraska Exhibit FAQs
What exhibit marking system do Nebraska courts require?
Nebraska uses a UNIQUE unified numbering system under Neb. Ct. R. §§ 2-301 to 2-303. ALL exhibits are numbered in sequence (1, 2, 3...) regardless of party. The same number is NEVER used twice in a case. There are no party designations.
Is e-filing mandatory in Nebraska courts?
Nebraska uses JUSTICE for general e-filing plus a dedicated E-Exhibits System for staging and managing exhibits. The file size limit is 25 MB per document.
What should exhibit labels include in Nebraska?
Nebraska exhibit labels must include the date marked and the page count. Multi-page exhibits should be stapled and arranged with the earliest document first (chronological order).
Can I reuse exhibit numbers in Nebraska?
No. Nebraska has a strict rule that the same exhibit number can NEVER be reused in a case, even for different documents. Each exhibit gets a unique sequential number.
How do I coordinate exhibit numbers with opposing counsel in Nebraska?
Under Neb. Ct. R. § 2-302, parties must coordinate exhibit numbering before trial. One common approach is to agree that plaintiff uses odd numbers (1, 3, 5...) and defendant uses even numbers (2, 4, 6...). Alternatively, parties may reserve ranges (1-50 for plaintiff, 51-100 for defendant). The key is ensuring no duplicate numbers throughout the case.
