Plain-English Summary
Section 25-2920 keeps the Dispute Resolution Act’s operation visible to the public. The director must produce an annual report on how the act is being implemented, and that report has to go up on the Nebraska Supreme Court’s website where anyone can read it.
The report is not a bare summary. It has to include the number and types of disputes the approved centers received, how those disputes were disposed of, any problems the program ran into over the year, and recommendations for addressing those problems.
Together, those four categories give lawmakers, court administrators, and the public a running record of whether the approved-center system works as intended, and a paper trail of what needs fixing when it does not.
