Nebraska Supreme Court Affirms Board Rights to Issue Mineral Leases
Nebraska Supreme Court upholds the state board’s authority to issue mineral leases under existing rules but voids leases already granted. The decision signals possible later legislation to govern mineral rights on school lands and may boost the public school fund through potash and oil royalties. Capital investment in potash and oil exploration on state lands is expected as the legality issue is settled.
