Annotations

  • This section does not either expressly or by overwhelming implication waive sovereign immunity for actions brought against a state agency seeking compliance with the Criminal History Information Act. State ex rel. Rhiley v. Nebraska State Patrol, 301 Neb. 241, 917 N.W.2d 903 (2018).

  • This section authorizes an aggrieved individual to bring an action, not to file a motion in the criminal case the record of which he or she seeks to seal pursuant to section 29-3523. An "action" is a distinct and separate court proceeding, governed by separate pleadings and requiring separate process. State v. Coble, 299 Neb. 434, 908 N.W.2d 646 (2018).

  • This section provides a procedure for enforcing the privacy protections of the Security, Privacy, and Dissemination of Criminal History Information Act (including section 29-3523). State v. Coble, 299 Neb. 434, 908 N.W.2d 646 (2018).
