AI Summary
This bill amends sections of the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act in Nebraska to provide tenants with the right to a trial by jury. Specifically, the bill allows the complaint for restitution to include a demand for a trial by jury, requires the court to inform the tenant of the right to a jury trial if the action is filed in county court, and directs that the trial for possession be scheduled as soon as practicable if either party requests a jury trial. The bill also makes other minor changes to harmonize the provisions regarding the landlord-tenant proceedings.
