Legal Answers
4 Questions Answered
- Q. Can anything be done if During the moratorium & and a judge approved eviction that wasn't crime related or unpaid rent
- A: Depending on when the eviction occurred, your present circumstances, and other facts involving the eviction, you may now be eligible for expungement of the eviction. Recent Minnesota legislation has made it far easier to obtain an expungement in eviction cases and has expanded the reasons that courts will grant the expungement.
However, issues such as an outstanding rent balance or other outstanding obligations may make this more difficult. It is advisable to consult with an eviction expungement attorney and have them review your situation to determine if you may qualify for expungement.
- Q. I am going through eviction, why do my landlords have 9 attourneys/lawyers representing them?
- A: It is common for a firm representing a landlord (or other parties in civil litigation) to include multiple attorneys on their court filings. This is even more common in housing court, where often a firm retained by a landlord has not determined which of the attorneys will appear at each hearing.
It seems very unlikely that the landlord will actually have 9 attorneys at the hearing on their behalf. Most likely one of the listed attorneys will appear at the hearing on behalf of the landlord.
- Q. If I have full physical custody of my children, what do I need to do to move out of state
- A: This largely depends on two things: whether or not the other parent has court-ordered parenting time, and if so, whether or not the other parent agrees to the move out of state. If the non-moving parent has court ordered parenting time, it is usually required that the parent seeking to move file a motion and obtain court approval prior to moving out of state. Of course, if the non-moving parent agrees with the move, this can be avoided.
