The Crime Victim's Reparations Program in Nebraska became effective January 1, 1979. The objective of the program is to assist victims of crimes with monetary losses directly related to the crime. Expenses such as medical costs, mental health counseling, loss of wages, funeral bills, residential crime scene clean-up, and loss of earning power may be compensated by the State. The program also now covers Nebraska residents who are victims of terrorism in other countries. A maximum of $10,000 may be awarded per crime victim. The report explains how to file a claim and the reasons a claim may be denied. It also describes the appeal process for denied claims and summarizes nine bills related to crime victim's issues that were introduced during the 2001 State legislative session. Information from fiscal year 2000-2001 is offered. The 2000-2001 budget for the program was $402,393.40, plus $12,620 that was appropriated for operational expenses. There were 262 claims filed; 108 were awarded funds, 118 were denied, 1 claim was withdrawn, and 3 claims were not eligible. A total of $430,611.01 was awarded to victims of crimes in Nebraska for fiscal year 2000-2001. Finally, the report discusses the statutes, rules, and regulations of the Nebraska Crime Victim's Reparations Program.
