What Information is Protected as Private

Privacy Protections on Probate Cases

Minnesota protects the information included within the bill of particulars. Guardianship hearings may be closed upon request and for good cause.

The bill of particulars may contain confidential information, including from the pleadings and proceedings. It will only be available to the parties and their attorneys, interested parties who file objections to the bill of particulars, and to others upon consent of the affected parties or representatives or by order of the court for good cause shown. Those to whom the information is disclosed may disclose it only to those authorized to receive it.

The guardianship hearing may be closed upon the request of the respondent and a showing of good cause.
