Text: While some may question the wisdom of imposing generally uninsurable liability upon the parents of errant children rather than leaving the risk of insurable loss upon those who experience property damage or personal injury at the hands of such children, the fact remains that in a representative democracy such as exists in this state, the wisdom, justice, policy, or expediency of a statute is for the Legislature alone. Arant v. G.H., Inc., 229 Neb. 729, 428 N.W.2d 631 (1988); Else v. Else, 219 Neb. 878, 367 N.W.2d 701 (1985); Williams v. County of Buffalo, 181 Neb. 233, 147 N.W.2d 776 (1967). The judgment of the district court, being erroneous, is reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings. REVERSED AND REMANDED FOR FURTHER PROCEEDINGS.
