What is the procedure for requesting an en banc hearing?
An en banc hearing in Nebraska is a special type of judicial proceeding. It is a hearing that takes place before all the judges of the appellate court, rather than before a three-judge panel of the court. To request an en banc hearing, a party must first file a motion asking the court to review the case. This motion must be filed with the court clerk and served on all other parties involved in the case. The motion must include a statement of why the party believes the case should be heard by all the judges. The court will then decide whether or not to grant the motion. If it is granted, all the judges of the court will decide whether to hear the case. If the majority of the judges decide to accept the case, it will go before the full court for a hearing. At the hearing, both parties have a chance to present their arguments in front of the judges. The judges will then make a decision based on their collective assessment of the arguments presented. The court may reverse or affirm the decision of the three-judge panel, depending on their findings.
