Nebraska LB1088 requires individuals convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence or subject to domestic abuse protection orders to surrender firearms.

Nebraska LB1088 amends the Protection Orders Act to mandate that individuals convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence or subject to domestic abuse protection orders surrender firearms and ammunition. The court must issue an order requiring the surrender of all firearms and ammunition in the individual's possession. The surrender must be made to a qualified third party, such as a law enforcement officer or licensed firearm dealer, within a specified timeframe. The court must also notify the individual of potential costs for storing the firearms and the penalties for non-compliance.
