Minn. Gen. R. Prac. 607
As amended through October 28, 2024
At the first call of the calendar the parties shall specify whether the case is a default or for trial, and if for trial, whether by court or jury. When each case is called for hearing, the defendant shall be asked whether the defendant admits or denies the charges in the complaint. If a jury trial is demanded, the jury fee must be paid before the jury is impaneled.
