AI Summary

This bill prohibits the use of no-knock search warrants in Minnesota. It amends the existing state law to define a "no-knock search warrant" as one that allows law enforcement to enter premises without first loudly knocking and announcing their presence or purpose and waiting at least 30 seconds. The bill then adds a new subdivision that prohibits courts from issuing or approving any no-knock search warrants. Additionally, the bill repeals two existing subdivisions that previously set requirements for obtaining and reporting on the use of no-knock search warrants.
