Rule 3-1108 Education and training.

Here's a plain English summary of this rule:

The Nebraska Supreme Court is responsible for creating materials that explain what lawyers need to do to follow these succession planning rules. The court will also offer training once a year to help lawyers understand their duties under this rule.

This means lawyers won't be left to figure things out on their own. The court will give them resources and hold regular training sessions so they know exactly what's expected of them when it comes to planning for what happens to their law practice if they can no longer run it (due to retirement, illness, death, or other reasons).

This rule took effect on November 1, 2025, though it was officially adopted back in January of that year. The gap between adoption and the effective date likely gave the court time to prepare these educational materials before lawyers were required to follow the full set of succession planning rules.
