Bridging Worlds: Community, Culture, and the Work of Legal Aid — Wednesday, November 6 - Friday, November 8, 2024 — Madden’s Resort on Gull Lake, Brainerd MN
Thursday November 7, 2024 9:45am - 10:45am CST
Significant.  Sweeping.  Historic.  This describes the landlord-tenant laws enacted during the 2023 state legislative session, a huge victory for Minnesota tenants.  Some of the significant changes included required notice before filing a nonpayment of rent eviction, modernization of the eviction court process, and reforms to eviction expungement.  However, challenges have arisen making it difficult to implement the reforms on the ground.  In this session, you’ll hear perspectives from experts who practice in greater Minnesota and the metro area.  We take stock of what’s going well, the challenges, and what’s on the horizon for potential future legislative change.  We’ll also discuss stats, trends, and share best practices to help one another achieve justice for tenants.
