Criminal Law : Sex Offender Registry – Juvenile Offender – Delinquency Adjudication

Where a district court found that a provision of Nebraska’s sex offender registry law did not apply to a juvenile with a delinquency adjudication, the judgment is affirmed because a juvenile adjudicated delinquent does not fall within the definition of “sex offender.”

Judgment is affirmed.
