Nebraska Supreme Court Chief Justice Michael Heavican visited Beatrice on Tuesday afternoon, along with four Supreme Court associate justices, Nebraska Judicial Branch staff and probation administrators, for presentations at the Gage County Courthouse. Several members of the group toured The Resolution Center in downtown Beatrice before a presentation in the Gage County Courtroom by Kelly Riley, Office of Dispute Resolution, and Lacey Jurgens, president of the board of The Resolution Center. The center provides child welfare conferencing, family mediation, juvenile and restorative justice conferencing in 16 counties in Southeast Nebraska.

Six mediation centers provide similar services throughout Nebraska. Gage County Court Judge Jeff Gaertig said the center helps parents and families. “They help find compromise and solutions outside of the courtroom,” he said.
