The Minnesota Notice of Related Appeal is a document required to be filed in Minnesota to alert the court that two or more appeals are related and should be heard together. It must be filed within 30 days of the first appeal filing and before any briefs are filed. The Notice of Related Appeal must include the case name, case number, the name of the court, the parties involved, and the date of the first appeal being filed. It must also include a statement indicating that the appeals are related. There are three types of Minnesota Notice of Related Appeal: Interlocutory Appeal, Discretionary Appeal, and Direct Appeal. An Interlocutory Appeal is one in which the court has not yet issued a final ruling and one of the parties is requesting an immediate appeal on a ruling or order. A Discretionary Appeal is one in which the court has the discretion to decide whether to hear the appeal. A Direct Appeal is one in which the court must hear the appeal and the court's decision is final.
