Can I appeal a TERC decision in Nebraska, and to where?
Yes — a final decision of the Tax Equalization and Review Commission can be appealed to the Nebraska Court of Appeals for judicial review.
The Nebraska Court of Appeals is the judicial step after TERC.
When it applies. Only after the Tax Equalization and Review Commission (TERC) issues a final decision. Under Neb. Rev. Stat. §77-5019, a final TERC decision may be appealed to the Nebraska Court of Appeals for judicial review.
Is it worth it for a homeowner? Rarely. This is a formal court proceeding, and the cost and effort usually outweigh the savings on a typical residential valuation. Nearly all homeowner cases are resolved earlier — at the county Board of Equalization or at TERC.
The practical takeaway. Build the strongest comparable-sales case at the Form 422 / CBoE stage. A well-documented case early is far more cost-effective than litigating value later.
