Status: in_force

§ Subdivision 1. Requirements of order. An order for attachment shall: (1) contain the findings required by section 570.026 ; (2) state with particularity the facts upon which the findings are made; (3) state that any respondent who attended the hearing was offered an opportunity to identify exempt property, without waiver of the right to claim exemption in property not identified at the hearing; (4) direct the sheriff of the county in which the court is located or of any other county to seize and safely keep all nonexempt property of the respondent or such specific property as the court may specify, or so much as is necessary to satisfy the amount claimed with expenses and costs using the full force of the county; (5) authorize the sheriff to keep the property attached in any manner considered appropriate in the reasonable judgment of the sheriff, unless the order otherwise specifies the method of keeping; and (6) specify the amount of the bond.

§ Subd. 2. Other provisions of order. An order for attachment may: (1) describe the place or places which may be entered by the sheriff using the full force of the county subject to the limitations of clause (3); (2) require the respondent, the respondent's agents or employees, or any other person having possession of the property subject to the order to deliver the property to the sheriff. The order may also require the respondent, its officers or managing agent, or any other person named in the order to disclose the location of any nonexempt property that was assigned, secreted, or disposed of, or removed or about to be removed from the state with intent to delay or hinder the respondent's creditors, or property that was converted or was about to be converted for the purpose of putting it beyond the reach of the respondent's creditors. The order may also provide that, if delivery is not made or the location is not disclosed, the respondent or any other person specified in the order appear in court at a specified time and place to give testimony as to the location of the property and to show cause why an order should not be entered finding the respondent or other person specified in this section in contempt of court for failure to deliver the property or to disclose its location; and (3) provide that if the property, or any of it, is concealed in a building or elsewhere, and a public demand made by the sheriff for its delivery is refused or there is no response, the sheriff shall cause the building or enclosure to be broken open and shall take the property from it. The sheriff may not enter the residence of a person other than the respondent unless the order so specifies, identifying with particularity the residence or residences which may be entered, on the basis of a finding by the court that probable cause exists to believe that the property is at this residence.

Status: in_force

The certificates and deeds issued pursuant to sections 280.03 and 280.11 , or the record thereof, shall be prima facie evidence that the parcel described therein was subject to taxation for the year or years therein stated; that such parcel was listed and assessed at the time and in the manner required by law; that the taxes were levied according to law; that the judgment pursuant to which the sale was made was duly entered, and that the court had jurisdiction to enter the same; that all requirements of law with respect to the sale had been complied with; that such parcel had not been redeemed from the sale; and of title in the grantee therein after the time for redemption has expired; provided, that when any such certificate or deed embraces university, school, or other state lands, the title whereof is in the state, no other or greater interest shall be held to be thereby conveyed than that acquired under the certificate of the commissioner of management and budget. No sale shall be set aside or held invalid by reason of any misrecitals in such certificate or deed; nor unless the party objecting to the same prove either that the taxes were paid before the judgment was rendered, or that such parcel was exempt from taxation, or that the court rendering the judgment pursuant to which the sale was made had not jurisdiction to render the same, or that after the judgment and before the sale such judgment had been satisfied, or that notice of sale as required by this chapter was not given, or that such parcel was not offered at such sale to the bidder who would pay the amount for which the parcel was to be sold at the lowest rate of interest, as provided in this chapter; provided, that every judgment rendered against any parcel for a tax which was paid before the entry thereof, or when the land was exempt from taxation, shall be void, and all sales made under any such judgment or under a judgment which has been paid shall be void, and no title or interest in any parcel sold under such judgment shall pass or be conveyed to any purchaser at such sale.

In such action, the county in which the land is situated, or the state, if either claim any interest in the land sold under such judgment, may be made a party defendant, in which case the county attorney shall appear in behalf of such county or state, or both.
