In the event of the absence of a courtroom clerk, the appointing judge of such courtroom clerk may request from the Nebraska Supreme Court, any Nebraska Supreme Court employee meeting the competency requirements of § 1-204(F) to act as subtitute courtroom clerk. If such employee is not available, and where it would appear to not be practical or feasible to reassign an official court reporter on a temporary basis, the judge may designate or contract with a substitute reporter under the provisions of § 1-212 or, pursuant to § 1-201(A)(3), designate other court personnel as defined in § 1-204(A)(4) to perform the duties of the courtroom clerk.

§ 1-213 amended June 16, 2021, effective January 1, 2022.
