This bill introduces a new legal mechanism in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 507, allowing record title holders to interrupt adverse possession of real estate through the use of an "affidavit of interruption." The bill defines key terms such as "affidavit of interruption," "county recorder," "neighbor," and "survey," and outlines the process for a record title holder to record an affidavit and provide necessary notice to neighbors or other parties involved. The affidavit must include specific information, such as a legal description of the property and a statement of intent to interrupt adverse possession.

Additionally, the bill establishes requirements for notifying affected parties, including sending certified mail to neighbors or publishing notice in a qualified newspaper if the adverse possessor is unknown. The recorded affidavit of interruption will disrupt any ongoing adverse possession period, allowing a new period to begin immediately after the affidavit is recorded. The county recorder is tasked with maintaining records of these affidavits and related notices, ensuring transparency and proper documentation of the interruption process.
