Impact in Minnesota

In Minnesota, the statutory interest rate on judgments and verdicts is 4% under Minn. Stat. § 549.09, subd. 1(c). This rate applies to the principal amount of the judgment from the date of the verdict or award until full payment is made. The statute defines the rate as a fixed percentage, and the calculation is based on the total sum of the judgment, not on any variable market index. The law also sets out the method for computing interest and provides for certain exceptions. The worked example below demonstrates how the 4% figure applies over time.
