<strong>Child</strong> <strong>Support</strong> <strong>Enforcement</strong><br />

Noteworthy statutes, cases & info<br />

(Compiled by William P. MacKenzie, Deputy <strong>Sarpy</strong> <strong>County</strong> Attorney)<br />

The support of one's children is a fundamental obligation that takes precedence over almost everything<br />

else. -- Rauch v. Rauch; 256 Neb. 257 (1999)<br />

The following compendium of case law, statutes, court rules and other resources relating<br />

to paternity establishment and child support enforcement is not exhaustive, but it does contain<br />

the most important appellate cases on the general subject of “child support,” as well as a limited<br />

listing of other legal resources. Except as noted, cases listed are from the <strong>Nebraska</strong> Supreme<br />

Court as well as those cases from the <strong>Nebraska</strong> Court of Appeals that are designated as for<br />

“permanent publication.”<br />

If you discover an error in citation or a case that has been overruled or modified by a<br />

subsequent opinion, please call 402.593.4464 or email billm@sarpy.com to report your findings.<br />
