What the bill says
From the introduced text:
One Hundred Ninth Legislature - Second Session - 2026 Introducer's Statement of Intent LB1036 Chairperson: Senator Carolyn Bosn Committee: Judiciary The following constitutes the reasons for this bill and the purposes which are sought to be accomplished thereby: Legislative Bill 1036 would provide for a clear pretrial process for parties and trial courts to follow in order to determine whether evidence of other bad acts or crimes is inextricably intertwined and whether such evidence should be admitted at trial, if so, whether it should be for a limited purpose. LB 1036 would provide a framework and a standard to determine whether bad acts or other crimes should be permitted at trial. This will provide for consistency in the law and will minimize unnecessary trial and appellate litigation. Principal Introducer: ________________________________ Senator George Dungan
