Nebraska Supreme Court

Munsell v. Munsell

May 8, 2026321 Neb. 363

Summary

The Nebraska Supreme Court affirmed the district court’s award of sole legal custody to Libby Munsell, finding no abuse of discretion, and modified the decree to permit Jacob Munsell to enroll the children in a church camp during his parenting time because no substantial threat to the children was shown. The court applied the best‑interests standard and the LeDoux framework for balancing parental religious‑exercise rights.
