§ 25-1275.Legal notices; proof of posting or service.

Not every required notice goes through a newspaper. Some are posted or personally served instead, and this section supplies the proof mechanism for that alternative. The posting or service of any notice or other paper required by law may be proved by the affidavit of any competent witness. That affidavit has to be attached to a copy of the notice or paper itself, so the proof and the document it concerns travel together.

Timing works the same way it does for published notices under the related section governing newspaper and website publication: the affidavit must be made within six months of the time of the posting. This section pairs with section 25-1274, which covers proof of publication specifically; together they cover the two common ways a required notice reaches its audience — publication and posting or service.
