§ 25-21,306.Child sexual exploitation device or image; prohibited acts; civil action by victim; civil penalty; Attorney General; enforcement; deceptive trade practice.

Section 25-21,306, operative since July 18, 2026, targets a different category of prohibited item than sections 25-21,304 and 25-21,305 — not visual depictions on the internet, but physical or imaged objects. A child sexual exploitation device or image is an anatomically correct mannequin, robot, doll, device, or image that has, or resembles, the features of a minor — someone under eighteen — and is intended for use in sexual acts.

A person may not knowingly buy, sell, deliver, or distribute such a device or image; knowingly possess one that has already been bought, sold, delivered, or distributed; or possess one with the intent to engage in any of that prohibited conduct. A minor whose features are represented, or intended by the violator to be represented, by such a device or image may sue anyone who violates these prohibitions with respect to that device or image, recovering preliminary and other equitable relief along with actual economic and noneconomic damages, plus reasonable attorney’s fees and litigation costs if the plaintiff prevails.

As with the internet-based provisions in section 25-21,304, the Attorney General or a county attorney may separately pursue a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per violation, seek an injunction or other equitable relief, and recover reasonable fees and costs, with any violation also counting as a deceptive trade practice under the Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
