Nebraska Third Party Summons is a document filed in Nebraska civil court that initiates a legal claim against a defendant. It is part of the process of a civil lawsuit and is used to notify the defendant of the lawsuit and their obligation to appear in court. There are two types of Nebraska Third Party Summons: Summons of Garnishment and Summons of Notice. Summons of Garnishment is used when a debtor owes a creditor a debt and the creditor wishes to garnish the debtor’s wages or assets to pay the debt. Summons of Notice is used to notify the defendant of a lawsuit and their obligation to appear in court. Both types of summons require the defendant to respond to the summons in writing within a certain amount of time. Failure to do so may result in a default judgment being made against them.
