July 2015 | 867 N.W.2d 290 (Neb. Ct. App. 2015)
Jamie N v. Kenneth M (Nebraska 2015)
The doctrines of issue preclusion and res judicata do not bar a subsequent paternity action when the court did not have jurisdiction over the earlier proceedings. All parties to a paternity action, including the legal and biological father, must be joined or the court does not have jurisdiction over the action.
