Senators passed a bill May 18 related to support liens and military families in divorce cases.<\/p>\n
LB673, introduced by Norfolk Sen. Mike Flood, requires a court to order a judgment creditor to pay a judgment debtor’s court costs and attorney fees when the judgment creditor has refused, without a good faith reason, to execute a release of the judgment for child support, spousal support or subordination of a lien.<\/p>\n
Under the bill, a showing that all support payments are current shall be evidence that the judgement creditor did not have a good faith reason to refuse to execute such release or subordination.<\/p>\n
The bill also provides procedural protections in custody and visitation cases for military parents who are moving or deploying.<\/p>\n
The bill passed on a 49-0 vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
