Neb. Ct. R. § 6-2201
Application and interpretation of rules
(A) These Rules apply to civil actions brought under the County Court Expedited Civil Actions Act (Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 25-2741 to 25-2749) (the Act). The Expedited Civil Action forms referenced in these Rules can be found as Appendices to these Rules. These Rules and forms apply to the extent that they are not in conflict with the Act or other applicable statutes. The Nebraska Court Rules of Pleading in Civil Cases, Neb. Ct. R. Pldg. § 6-1101 et seq., and Nebraska Court Rules of Discovery in Civil Cases, Neb. Ct. R. Disc. § 6-301 et seq., apply whenever they address matters that are not addressed by the Act or these Rules.
(B) These Rules are designed to further the purpose of the Act, which is to increase access to the Nebraska courts by establishing a streamlined process for handling civil actions in which the only relief sought is a money judgment for a limited amount. The streamlined process is designed for cases that do not involve complex legal or factual issues. These Rules should be interpreted in light of the purpose of the Act.
(C) As used throughout these Rules, the term “side” means all litigants with generally common interests in the litigation.
