About this form
This packet opens an uncontested no-fault divorce in Nebraska, where both spouses agree on the terms.
Nebraska is a pure no-fault state (irretrievably broken, § 42-361(1)) with a one-year residency rule (§ 42-349) and a jurisdictional 60-day wait (§ 42-363). This is an official-first packet: every court instrument is a current Nebraska Supreme Court Pro Se form (supremecourt.nebraska.gov), including the party-prepared Decree (DC 6:4.6) and the no-hearing requests (DC 6:4.9/6:4.10). IMPORTANT SCOPE: the official forms are for a SIMPLE divorce only — no real estate, retirement accounts, pensions, or alimony — and the official decree hardcodes a possession-based property split and does not incorporate an attached agreement. The settlement product is a PublicLegal-authored marital settlement agreement (no official statewide form exists). Those blank official forms are free at supremecourt.nebraska.gov — you are paying for current-edition packaging, the eligibility screen, and ILRG product support. That is not legal advice. The FAQ below covers the details.
See page 1 of the actual blank form and review a plain-language outline. The complete formatted documents are delivered after checkout.
COMPLAINT FOR DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE — NO CHILDREN (official Form DC 6:4.1). The official Nebraska Supreme Court pro se complaint that opens a no-fault dissolution in the District Court. One of the current DC-series forms, free blank at supremecourt.nebraska.gov.
Residency and ground: one spouse must have actually resided in Nebraska for one year before filing (§ 42-349); the only ground is that the marriage is irretrievably broken (§ 42-361(1)).
Simple divorces only: the official forms are not for cases with real estate, retirement accounts, pensions, or alimony, and the official decree hardcodes a possession-based property split.
The full packet also includes the confidential party information sheet, the voluntary appearance, both sworn no-hearing requests (DC 6:4.9/6:4.10), the party-prepared Decree (DC 6:4.6), and the PublicLegal-authored settlement agreement.

The 1 packet documents listed on this page are included, delivered in PDF format. The packet centers on the Complaint for Dissolution of Marriage that opens an uncontested no-fault case, plus the supporting filing documents and reference materials shown above.
At least one spouse must have actually resided in Nebraska for one year before filing — or you were married in Nebraska and a spouse has lived here continuously since the marriage, or a spouse has been continuously stationed for one year at a Nebraska military base (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 42-349). The official complaint recites only the one-year residence prong; it has no married-in-Nebraska checkbox, so get advice before adapting it to another statutory path. File in the District Court of the county where you or your spouse lives. Confirm local filing practice with the clerk.
Nebraska is pure no-fault: the only ground is that the marriage is irretrievably broken (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 42-361(1)); fault is abolished. The judge finds the marriage broken if both spouses state it under oath, or one states it and the other does not deny it. If your spouse will not agree, this is not your packet.
Nebraska has a jurisdictional 60-day wait: the court cannot enter the decree until 60 days after service is perfected or a Voluntary Appearance is filed (§ 42-363). After that, § 42-361(3) lets the court enter the decree WITHOUT a hearing if both spouses file the notarized sworn requests — Plaintiff DC 6:4.9 and Defendant DC 6:4.10 — certifying the breakdown and a signed written agreement resolving every issue, with the proposed decree submitted. Otherwise the Notice of Hearing (DC 6:4.5) path is used. The decree becomes final and operative 30 days after it is filed (or on a party's death); neither party may remarry for six months (§ 42-372.01). Court schedules vary by county.
No. This packet is the agreed path for spouses who settle every issue. If your spouse will contest, consult a Nebraska attorney about the contested process.
No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. Consult a Nebraska attorney if you have significant property, retirement accounts, business interests, safety concerns, or any disagreement about terms.
