Erica Jenkins’ name change

The convict asked for a name change at the York County District in mid-2021. She wanted her name legally changed from Erica Ashley Jenkins to Elluminati Egoddess Enniko Prestige. During the court proceedings in July 2021, the convict revealed she was not evading creditors but exercising her First Amendment rights and religion.

Judge James Stecker of York County District determined that the court had the jurisdiction on the matter since she had been a resident of York County and the State of Nebraska for over a year. He accepted her petition, and now the NCCW inmate is legally recognized as Elluminati Egoddess Enikko Prestige.
