Check the result before use

This is a self-check calculation of the sourced base period, not a final filing instruction. Minnesota legal holidays, court-specific closures and emergency closure orders are not bundled. Weekend expiries are identified but not shifted, and a weekday result may still be a local non-business day. Check Minn. R. Civ. P. 6.01 and Minn. R. Civ. App. P. 126.01 and the current court calendar before filing or serving. Check the cited rule, the correct factual branch, every order and any electronic-filing cut-off.

21 days from Service of the summons on the defendant

A statute, court order, special proceeding or permitted Rule 12 motion may change the response date.

Legal disclaimer

Deadline Engine calculates dates from encoded procedural rules. It is software, not legal advice, and no output is approved for your matter. Check the jurisdiction, inputs, current cited rule, facts and any order or agreement before recording or using the date. Responsibility for the operative deadline and diary remains with you.

Official sources and calculation basis

The base-period calculation uses Minn. R. Civ. P. 6.01 and Minn. R. Civ. App. P. 126.01. The source pack was reviewed on 6 August 2026. A newer amendment, local rule, closure direction or case-specific order can change the date.
