NEBRASKA Part 15

Even if your spouse is not living in the same county or is not in Nebraska at all, you still can have a sheriff give your spouse the papers. The Clerk of the District Court in your county gives your lawyer the Summons. Your lawyer can then send the Complaint and Summons to the Sheriff where your spouse lives. This type of service takes a little more time. If your spouse does not live in Nebraska, there also may be a problem with "Jurisdiction." This means that the Judge here may not have the power to make decisions about some of the things you asked for in your Complaint. There is a more complete explanation of Jurisdiction in Part III of this handbook.
