Important Information about Unemployment Appeals
Request Reconsideration Before You File Your Appeal
Before you appeal to the Court of Appeals, you must request reconsideration of the ULJ’s initial
decision before the deadline for that request, and receive the ULJ’s ruling on your request for
reconsideration. The ULJ’s initial decision included instructions for requesting reconsideration.
The ULJ’s ruling on a request for reconsideration is the final decision that you can appeal to the
Court of Appeals.
Court of Appeals Opinions are Available to the Public
Once your appeal is decided, the Court of Appeals opinion will be available to the public on the
Minnesota Judicial Branch’s website. After an opinion is filed, it cannot be removed from the
Internet. This means that anyone who searches for your name on the Internet may be able to find
and read the opinion, which will include information about the reason you were fired.
Laws that Apply to your Appeal
Your appeal is governed by the Minnesota Rules of Civil Appellate Procedure, the Special Rules
of Practice for the Minnesota Court of Appeals, and the Minnesota Statutes. Minnesota Statute
section 268.105 applies specifically to unemployment benefits appeals.
This packet includes simplified instructions, but you should read the rules and statutes yourself for
more information. If you are representing yourself, you are responsible for researching court
rules, case law, and statutes that govern your case.
You can find the rules and statutes at the Minnesota State Law Library (Room G25, Minnesota
Judicial Center, 25 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., St. Paul, MN 55155, or call 651-296-
2775), and at public libraries. You can also find the rules at the Minnesota Judicial Branch’s
website:
