Neb. Const. art. IV, § 3

Treasurer; ineligibility

The treasurer shall be ineligible to the office of treasurer, for two years next after the expiration of two consecutive terms for which he was elected.

Adopted in 1875. (The changes made to this section by Initiative 407 in 1992 and Initiative 408 in 1994 have been omitted because of the decisions of the Nebraska Supreme Court in Duggan v. Beermann, 245 Neb. 907, 515 N.W.2d 788 (1994) and Duggan v. Beermann, 249 Neb. 411, 544 N.W.2d 68 (1996). The 1992 amendment changed the language to read, "The Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Auditor of Public Accounts, Treasurer, Attorney General and members of the Public Service Commission shall be ineligible to file for reelection to those respective offices and shall be ineligible to serve in those respective offices for a number of years equal to the number of years in the term for which they were last elected, next after the expiration of the second of two consecutive terms for which previously elected, and as further provided in Article XV, Section 21." The 1994 changes were identical to the 1992 changes except that "Section 21" was changed to "Section 22.")
