Minnesota Affidavit of Plaintiff (Eviction) is a document used by landlords to start an eviction process in the State of Minnesota. This document serves as evidence of the landlord's right to recover possession of the property and outlines the reasons for the eviction. It must be signed by the landlord, notarized, and then delivered to the tenant. There are two types of Minnesota Affidavit of Plaintiff (Eviction): the Summary Process and Formal Process. The Summary Process is for eviction cases that don't involve a breach of lease or damage to the property. The Formal Process is used when a breach of the lease is involved or when the landlord claims the tenant has caused damage to the property. The Affidavit must include the landlord's name, address, and phone number; the amount of rent due; the reasons for the eviction; and a description of the premises being evicted. It must also include a statement that the landlord is entitled to possession of the premises and a request that the tenant vacate the property.
