AI Summary
This bill allows an injured person to sue someone for damages, including legal costs and attorney fees, if that person violated specific provisions of Minnesota Statutes section 609.662, which likely relate to the unlawful discharge of firearms or dangerous weapons. The bill amends this existing law by adding a new subdivision that creates this right to a civil action, meaning a lawsuit can be filed to seek compensation for harm caused by such violations. This change will take effect on August 1, 2026, and will apply to any incidents that occur on or after that date.
