COMMENTS: Concur with the Supreme Court’s estimated fiscal impact as a result of LB 15. Technical Note: The current 
appropriation language is not sufficient to create an appropriation.  The fiscal impact assessment assumes an 
accompanying A-bill articulating appropriation in accordance with §49-804.
