Lancaster County — Lincoln — carried the Goodyear tire plant, the Kawasaki manufacturing works, and the capital and university power operations, and at Hallam the NPPD Sheldon Station, where rubber, manufacturing, and coal-fired power reportedly relied on asbestos-containing insulation and materials.
Nebraska allows four years from a mesothelioma or asbestos-cancer diagnosis to file a claim, measured from discovery (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-224, the asbestos discovery rule). Wrongful-death timing should be confirmed with counsel — the general wrongful-death statute (§ 30-810) sets two years from death, while § 25-224’s asbestos discovery provisions may apply. Cases are filed in the county District Court of proper venue; Nebraska has no statewide asbestos MDL.
