Laws 2006, LB 1115, § 6.

Plain-English Summary

Section 25-3206 fixes the Act’s starting point. The Uniform Conflict of Laws Limitations Act applies to claims accruing after July 14, 2006 — the Act’s effective date. A claim that accrued on or before that date is not governed by sections 25-3202 through 25-3205; instead, it is governed by whatever conflict-of-laws principles Nebraska courts applied before the Act existed.

For a claim with connections to more than one state, the date it accrued, not the date a lawsuit is filed or a dispute over the limitation period arises, decides whether this Act’s rules ever come into play.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cutoff date for claims covered by this Act?

Claims accruing after July 14, 2006.

What governs a claim that accrued before July 14, 2006?

Whatever conflict-of-laws rules Nebraska courts applied before this Act took effect, since the Act does not reach claims accruing on or before that date.

Does “accrual” here refer to when the claim arose, when it was filed, or something else?

Section 25-3206 ties the Act’s applicability to when the claim accrues, not when a lawsuit is later filed.

Why would a court need to know if this Act applies to a case?

To decide whether sections 25-3203 through 25-3205 govern which state’s limitation period applies, or whether older, pre-Act conflict-of-laws principles control instead.

Does this section change any of the Act’s substantive choice-of-law rules?

No. It only fixes the date from which those rules apply.
