Minnesota Creates Full Time Tax Court With Small Claims
The Minnesota Legislature established a new full time Tax Court based in St Paul to hear tax cases statewide. A small claims division limits disputes to 2500 dollars allowing taxpayers to act as their own lawyers with informal proceedings and no appeals if defeated. The court will appoint three or more judges for six year terms, with pay aligned to county and district court levels, and will ride the circuit to hear cases across the state.
