§ 25-3501.Act, how cited.

Section 25-3501 assigns a name to the group of statutes that follow it. Sections 25-3501 through 25-3508 make up the Uniform Civil Remedies for Unauthorized Disclosure of Intimate Images Act, a model law Nebraska adopted to give a depicted individual a civil remedy when someone discloses, or threatens to disclose, an intimate image without consent. Being a uniform act means Nebraska’s version tracks language used by other states that adopted the same model, which section 25-3508 later addresses directly by directing courts to weigh the value of consistent interpretation across those states.

The act’s substantive core — who can sue, what a plaintiff has to prove, what defenses apply, and what a court can award — appears in the sections that follow this one, not here. Section 25-3509, which addresses a plaintiff’s ability to proceed under a pseudonym, falls outside the numbered range this section names, yet it cross-references this section’s title, since it operates as part of the same act even though it was added afterward.
