Federal Court Practice in the District of Nebraska
David Medlin of Albion, NE practices within the geographic jurisdiction of the District of Nebraska (DNE), the United States district court that hears civil and criminal matters arising from Omaha, NE and the surrounding territory comprising the DNE.
The principal courthouse for the DNE is located at 111 South 18th Plaza, Omaha, NE 68102 (official court website). Filings in this district are subject to the district's local civil and criminal rules in addition to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.
David Medlin's tax practice in the DNE typically involves matters governed by the district's tax caseload, including pretrial motion practice, discovery scheduling under the district's standing orders, and trial proceedings before an Article III district judge or a magistrate judge by consent of the parties under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).
Appellate Path: Eighth Circuit
Adverse rulings from federal trial courts in Nebraska are reviewable on direct appeal by the Eighth Circuit, sitting in St. Louis, MO. David Medlin's federal practice may include direct merits appeals under Fed. R. App. P. 4, petitions for panel rehearing or rehearing en banc under Fed. R. App. P. 35 and 40, and — in qualifying matters — petitions for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States under Sup. Ct. R. 10.
Federal appellate practice differs materially from state-court appellate practice: briefing length, standards of review (de novo, clear error, abuse of discretion, plain error), and oral-argument allotments are governed by the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and the Eighth Circuit's local circuit rules. Tax appeals from the DNE are docketed at the Eighth Circuit and decided either after oral argument or on the briefs depending on the panel's screening determination.
What Tax Practice Looks Like in Nebraska
A tax matter in DNE typically begins with a complaint, indictment, or petition that triggers strict deadlines under the applicable federal rules. David Medlin guides clients through each procedural milestone — initial disclosures, scheduling conferences, dispositive motions, discovery cutoffs, and pretrial conference orders — that distinguish DNE practice from analogous state-court litigation in Nebraska.
