Introduced Text

Nebraska LB267 allows tenants to remove cotenants who commit domestic violence and mandates landlords to change locks in such cases.

Nebraska LB267 amends the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act to allow tenants to remove cotenants or occupants who commit domestic violence from rental agreements. It requires landlords to change locks if a tenant requests it, provided the tenant has a protective order or certification confirming domestic violence. Landlords must notify tenants of the new access method and may charge for the lock change. Landlords are not liable for actions taken in good faith under this act.
