NATURE OF CASE

The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) appeals from an order of the juvenile court requiring DHHS to pay opposing counsel's costs. The court took judicial notice that for the third straight hearing, DHHS had failed to provide opposing counsel prior notice of the exhibits to be offered. DHHS appeals the order and asserts that the juvenile court lacked the statutory authority to require payment of costs.
