Question Presented: 

A prosecuting attorney who files and prosecutes criminal proceedings in a District Court or in a District County Court is not disqualified from appearing in the same court in a wholly disconnected civil proceeding, provided participation in the latter proceeding is not within the restrictions imposed by Nebraska Statutes. This ruling is equally applicable to a deputy prosecuting attorney and to the law firm of which the prosecuting attorney is a member.
