A-14-1158, Donald L. Shandera, III, v. Kaitlyn Ann Schultz (Appellant)
Washington County, District Court Judge John E. Sampson
Attorney for Appellant: Karen S. Nelson (Schirber & Wagner, LLP)
Attorney for Appellee: Kelly Shattuck (Vacanti Shattuck)
Civil Action: Initial Custody Determination in a Paternity Action
Action Taken by Trial Court: The trial court awarded physical custody of the parties' child to appellee, rather than appellant, who had moved out of state.
Assignments of Error on Appeal: Did the trial court err in applying Nebraska's removal jurisprudence to an initial custody determination? Did the trial court err in failing to make findings under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act? Did the trial court err in failing to give appellant a preference in custody of the minor child?
