Court Information Office

The Minnesota Court Information Office (CIO) is the communications, public affairs, and media relations division of the Minnesota Judicial Branch. The office answers media and general public inquiries about the Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, and District Courts. It also oversees the judiciary's public outreach and education programs, its public and employee Websites, and assists with legislative efforts.

Minnesota Judicial Branch employees cannot provide legal advice, interpret law, or comment regarding court rulings. We recommend that you consult a lawyer or contact an organization for attorneys.
