March is Media Credential Month

News reporters will undergo re-credentialing for expanded media access in Nebraska trial courts throughout March. The new badges will have a red stripe on the bottom and expire March 30, 2025. New reporters continue to be asked to complete a rule review before credentials are granted.

Credentials are not needed to attend court, observe proceedings, take notes, or write stories. Credentials are ONLY needed to participate in a media pool and to use certain electronic devices.
