Abstract
Each State creates its own set of responses to an array of common problems in calculating a "make whole" remedy. For example, are income taxes to be explicitly recognized or to be excluded as too speculative? Some variables might be specified by statute or by court decision. For example, the expert in forensic economics might be compelled to use of a specific life expectancy table or interest rate regardless of the expert's professional opinion. This paper examines the Nebraska method of assessing these economic damages.
