Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-301 et seq. § 20-338
Finding, conclusion, or order; review; final order; service.
Operative Text
(1) The commission may review any finding, conclusion, or order issued under section 20-337 . The review shall be completed not later than thirty days after the finding, conclusion, or order is so issued or the finding, conclusion, or order will become final. (2) The commission shall cause the findings of fact and conclusions of law made with respect to any final order for relief, together with a copy of such order, to be served on each aggrieved person and each respondent in the proceeding.
Under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-301 et seq. § 20-338, Nebraska's civil rights commission has the authority to review any finding, conclusion, or order it issues under the preceding section, but that review must be completed within thirty days or the original decision automatically becomes final. Once a final order for relief is issued, the commission is required to serve both the aggrieved person and the respondent with the findings of fact, conclusions of law, and a copy of the order itself. This provision establishes a built-in deadline that keeps the review process from stalling indefinitely.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners or managers who are respondents in a fair housing proceeding governed by Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-301 et seq. § 20-338 can expect to receive formal written notice of any final order, including the supporting findings of fact and conclusions of law, directly from the commission. Compliant operators generally track the thirty-day review window carefully, since a finding or order that is not reviewed within that period becomes final by operation of law. Keeping accurate contact information on file with the commission helps ensure that service of any final order is received promptly.

For individuals who have filed a fair housing complaint in Nebraska, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 20-301 et seq. § 20-338 provides that the commission must serve aggrieved persons with a copy of any final order along with the findings of fact and conclusions of law that support it. The thirty-day review deadline means that a decision cannot be held in limbo indefinitely before becoming final. Tenants who believe a final order has not been properly served, or who have questions about the review timeline, may wish to contact the commission directly or reach out to a tenant-rights organization for general guidance.
