VERSIONS OF MINN. STAT. § 504B.178, SUBDIVISION 8 OVER TIMEStatute • September 6th, 2015
Subd. 7a. No tenant may withhold payment of all or any portion of rent for the last payment period of a residential rental agreement, except an oral or written month to month residential rental agreement concerning which neither the tenant nor landlord has served a notice to quit, on the grounds that such deposit should serve as payment for the rent. Withholding all or any portion of rent for the last payment period of the residential rental agreement creates a rebuttable presumption that the tenant withheld the last payment on the grounds that such deposit should serve as payment for the rent. Violation of this subdivision after written demand and notice of this subdivision shall subject the tenant to damages of twice the deposit and forfeiture of any interest due on the deposit in addition to actual damages.
