In Minnesota, you must give the landlord at least one calendar month notice prior to the termination. The termination will be at the end of the monthly rental period, which is usually the end of the month. This means that if you want to end a lease on January 31, you'll need to give notice no later than December 31.

There are several steps both landlords and tenants must take in an Eviction Action: The landlord must file a complaint against the tenant in district court. ... A court hearing must take place within 7 to 14 days after the court issues the summons. ... The judge will then deliver a decision.

If the landlord wants to end a month-to-month tenancy, the landlord will need to give the tenant a written notice to vacate. The amount of time on the notice must be either three months or the length of time between when rent is due, whichever is less.

Definite Term Leases If the lease states how long the tenancy will last (usually six months or a year), the agreement is a definite term lease. This type of lease is usually in writing. (If the lease is for more than a year or will end more than a year after it is formed, it must be in writing.)

A landlord can't force you to move out before the lease ends, unless you fail to pay the rent or violate another significant term, such as repeatedly throwing large and noisy parties. In these cases, landlords in Minnesota must follow specific procedures to end the tenancy.

A Minnesota month-to-month rental agreement is for tenancy-at-will arrangements where the landlord and tenant can terminate at any time with one (1) month's notice. The agreement will continue for an unspecified amount of time and will only be canceled upon termination by the landlord or tenant sending notice.
