NEBRASKA Part 53

IN FORMA PAUPERIS

It is possible for a person to file a Complaint with the Court even if they cannot pay the filing fee. A judge can order that the person be allowed to file without paying if they can show they can't afford the court costs. The person must sign an Affidavit which shows income, assets and expenses. If the Judge agrees that you cannot afford to pay for the fees, the judge signs an Order which says that you can file without pre-paying. The county may then be ordered to pay the fees (filing, Sheriff, publication). This does not include lawyer’s fees, deposition fees, witness fees, and other things.
