‘A simple, convenient, and user-friendly online
experience.’
Today the Nebraska Workers’ Compensation Court (NWCC) launches a
new online service that allows Nebraska attorneys to electronically
file court pleadings. The system was designed to increase both
filing capabilities for attorneys and efficiency for users and the
court. This is another step the State of Nebraska has made to
improve litigants' access to the court system.
The NWCC eFiling service provides many benefits to Nebraska
attorneys, including
- 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
access
- Filing at no additional cost on both
new and existing dockets
- 35 pleading options
- Mobile and tablet accessible
- Immediate confirmation of successful
submission
- Monitoring & history of court
pleadings
- Easy reconciliation reporting
In June, a group of attorneys were offered an opportunity to use
the online service and provide feedback. During this limited
offering, the court received 244 documents, an overwhelming
success.
“It is simple, convenient, and user-friendly,” said Travis
Spier, a partner in Atwood, Holsten, Brown, Deaver & Spier of
Lincoln. “The court’s receipt confirmation email goes out almost
immediately. Even those most sincerely devoted to ‘doing it the
old-fashioned way’ will appreciate how quickly and painlessly the
new eFiling system can be mastered.”
The system was created through a partnership between the
Nebraska Workers’ Compensation Court and Nebraska.gov under the
direction of Presiding Judge Laureen Van Norman.
“It has been a long-term goal of the NWCC to join the rest of
the Nebraska trial courts in offering eFiling,” Van Norman said.
“We are very optimistic that attorneys will find it to be
user-friendly and similar to eFiling in other courts. I compliment
our staff and Nebraska.gov on the success of the project.”
