Dorsey Funeral Home and Cremations in Omaha has been placed on probation following a petition filed by the Nebraska Attorney General’s Office, according to a news release.

On June 4, 2026, the Nebraska Attorney General’s Office filed a petition for disciplinary action in response to Dorsey Funeral Home and Cremations for cremating the remains of three decedents whose bodies were unclaimed in May 2025 as part of a training exercise. The establishment was not licensed at the time of the cremations. The petition charged the facility with operating without a license and aiding and abetting the provision of false statements on death certificates of the three decedents.

The order entered by the chief medical officer, Dr. Timothy A. Tesmer, places the Dorsey establishment license on probation for a term of two years and requires the establishment to be supervised by a licensed funeral director and embalmer who is actively engaged in the practice in Nebraska and whose own license is in good standing.
