The process for MN Unemployment Appeals Court starts with an incorrect decision. The reason this process is challenging is largely due to strict statutory deadlines.
An unemployment appeal of this nature can be divided into five steps:
- Petition and request a Writ of Certiorari from the Minnesota Court of Appeals,
- Determine whether a court fee is needed,
- Have all documents personally served on the parties involved (Applicant, Employer, Department of Employment, and the Attorney General),
- Drafting and filing a formal or informal unemployment brief (including an appendix) outlining the issues of contention, and
- Having the formal or informal unemployment brief (including an appendix) personally served on the parties involved (Applicant, Employer, Department of Employment, and the Attorney General).
Yes, a person or employer following the rules for this process has an automatic right to have their case reviewed.
By way of example, a MN Unemployment Appeals Court process requires filling out documents by hand versus filing documents electronically. Also, properly completed documents shall be served according to a process called “service of process.”
Additionally, this type of appeal can require “motions.” In other words, rather than ask for permission during a court proceeding, a person or business is required to seek permission by filing documents called “motions.” Thus, the process regarding a phone appeal is very different than a MN Unemployment Appeals Court issue.
