Minnesota eviction process

14 days nonpayment notice.

Nonpayment now requires a 14-day written notice before an eviction action. Month-to-month tenancies end on notice equal to the rent interval (commonly 30 days).

What this means for you: Paying the rent owed before judgment generally stops a nonpayment eviction.

Your next step: Note the 14-day notice and pay if you can; keep proof.
