MN Stat § 35.0662 (2021)
2021 Minnesota Statutes|Chapters 17 - 43 — Agriculture|Chapter 35 — Animal Health|Section 35.0662 — Temporary Emergency Restrictions Hearing.

35.0662 TEMPORARY EMERGENCY RESTRICTIONS HEARING. Subdivision 1. Grounds. If the board determines that a person is not reasonably likely to abide by the disease control measures established by the board, the board may request a court hearing to determine if the emergency temporary restrictions should continue. The court shall schedule the hearing as expeditiously as possible. When the board requests a court hearing under this section, restrictions under section 35.0661, subdivision 3, continue to apply to the person until the court has held the temporary emergency restrictions hearing and issues an order. Subd. 2. Time of notice. If the board requests a court hearing pursuant to this section, notice of the hearing must be served upon the person or persons to be restricted at least 24 hours before the hearing. Subd. 3. Contents of notice. The notice must contain the following information: (1) the time, date, and place of the hearing; (2) the grounds and underlying facts upon which continued restrictions are sought; (3) the person's right to appear by electronic means at the hearing and the right to have a representative appear in person at the hearing; (4) the person's right to present and cross-examine witnesses; and (5) the person's right to counsel, including the right, if the person is indigent, to representation by counsel designated by the court or county of venue. Subd. 4. Order for continued temporary restrictions. The court may order the continued restriction on the movement of the person if it finds, by a preponderance of the evidence, that travel outside of the quarantine zone by the person would pose an imminent threat of transporting a dangerous, infectious, or communicable disease outside of the boundaries of the quarantine zone. If the person agrees to sign and comply with the acknowledgment form referred to in section 35.0661, subdivision 3, the temporary restrictions must not continue longer than 30 days. If the person refuses to sign and comply with the acknowledgment form, the temporary restrictions may continue for a longer time specified by the court. Refusal by the person to sign and comply with the acknowledgment form constitutes a knowing violation of section 35.0661 and subjects the person to the penalties specified in section 35.96.

A community health board may also make an investigation and determination independently, without having received a complaint.

If the executive director of the Board of Animal Health, after investigation, has determined that rabies exists in any territory in the state, similar proclamations must be issued in all towns and cities within the territory or area in which it is necessary to control the outbreak and prevent the spread of the disease. The proclamation must prohibit the owner or custodian of any dog within the designated territory from permitting or allowing the dog to be at large within the territory unless the dog is effectively muzzled so that it cannot bite any other animal or person. All local peace officers and community health boards shall enforce sections 35.67 to 35.69. A proclamation issued by the community health board must be filed with the clerk of the political subdivision responsible for the community health board.

Each officer with whom the proclamation is filed shall publish a copy of it in one issue of a legal newspaper published in the clerk's town or city if one is published there. If no newspaper is published there, the clerk must post a copy of the proclamation in three public places. Publication is at the expense of the municipality. Proof of publication must be by affidavit of the publisher and proof of posting must be by the person doing the posting. The affidavit must be filed with the proclamation. The proclamation is effective five days after the publication or posting and remains effective for the period of time not exceeding six months specified in it by the community health board making the proclamation.
