Law establishes the Uniform Registration of Canadian Money Judgments Act

A new law will provide a process to register a Canadian court judgment for money in Minnesota.

This will be in addition to the existing process to register a foreign-money judgment from another jurisdiction, but has a court form that simplifies the filing and notice procedures and is specific to Canadian court judgements.

A judgment registered under the act is recognized and enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in this state.

Rep. Sandra Feist (DFL-New Brighton) and Sen. Mark Johnson (R-East Grand Forks) sponsor the law that takes effect Aug. 1, 2022.
