Minnesota�s Comparative Fault Laws

Know Your Rights30 Jul, 2024Legal

Comparative fault, or comparative negligence, means multiple parties can be considered at fault for an accident or injury. Each party's responsibility is compared to determine how much compensation, if any, will be awarded. Minnesota's modified comparative negligence rule, stated in Minnesota Statute Section 604.01, allows a person to recover damages for an injury if their fault is not greater than the defendant's. This modified comparative negligence law is commonly known as the 51 Percent Bar Rule.
