Can the public nuisance law be used to abate nuisance activity that is not associated with a

building?
During the three-year period from 1996 to 1999, Minnesota law15 permitted the filing of a
civil action against an individual for engaging in nuisance activity16 without requiring any
connection House Research Department October 2000 between the activity and a
building. This law, known as the “person as nuisance” law, was intended to address
specified nuisance activities conducted in places (e.g., streets, sidewalks, or other public
areas) other than the kinds of structures and private premises that are subject to
thepublic nuisance statute.
According to this law, any resident of the neighborhood or any neighborhood organization
in the area where the nuisance activity occurred could file the nuisance action.
Alternatively, the neighborhood resident or organization could ask the local prosecuting
attorney to file the action.
Proof of a nuisance could be established by clear and convincing evidence that the
respondent engaged in nuisance activity during two or more behavioral incidents within
the past 12 months.
The law authorized two defenses to the nuisance action: that the respondent was coerced
into committing the nuisance activity or that the prosecution of the nuisance was
motivated by unlawful discrimination against the respondent, as defined in the state
Human Rights Act. Finally, the law provided the following remedies:
When this “person as nuisance” law was enacted in 1996, the legislature considered it to
be an experiment and, therefore, included a three-year “sunset” date in the original
legislation. This sunset date was not extended or eliminated by subsequent legislative
action and, as a result, the law was repealed effective August 1, 1999.

For one year, Alice Krengel lived at the Dorothy Day homeless shelter in St. Paul, banned from her West St. Paul home by a district court.
After a series of public-nuisance violations, city officials had obtained an injunction to keep Krengel away.
She's been back home now for 10 months, but on Tuesday the Minnesota Court of Appeals overturned the lower court's decision, concluding she was
illegally forced out of her house.
In a 2-1 ruling, the appellate judges determined West St. Paul failed to comply with a state law that requires cities to prove two or more nuisance incidents
occurred within 12 months before the injunction hearing.
"I feel vindicated now," Krengel, 57, said Wednesday. "You cannot imagine my losses. This shows I'm a patient person."
The city claims Krengel, then an admitted alcoholic, had used her Allen Avenue home for years as a flophouse for criminals, drunks and drug users. Police
went to her house 41 times in 2006 alone.
Krengel's attorney urged the appeals court to interpret the law to require proof that two "behavioral incidents" occurred within 12 months preceding the
city's request for a permanent injunction, which was in October 2006. The city had argued the 12-month period should have begun in July 2005, when they
served written notice on intent to seek the injunction.
"We thought the clock stopped at that point," City Attorney Kori Land said.
"You can't change history and the fact she was gone for a year," Land said. "The city won the battle, but she won the war."
According to the city, police had been called to Krengel's home 180 times since 1990. Between September 2004 and July 2005, police were called to
Krengel's home 29 times, including when two intoxicated men assaulted each other with hammers and several incidents in which Krengel's guests were
drunk and were hauled to detox.
Threatening an injunction, Land in July 2005 notified Krengel she had to stop the nuisance or enter into an abatement plan with the city. Krengel entered
into the agreement a month later to stay sober, not permit alcohol in the house and allow police officers inside for random inspections for one year.
After West St. Paul officials said she repeatedly violated the agreement, Krengel was barred from her house in August 2006.
Citing numerous violations of the state's nuisance law, District Court Judge Leslie Metzen followed with the permanent injunction three months later, forcing
Krengel to stay out of her house until August 2007.
Krengel and her attorney unsuccessfully appealed three times to stop the injunction.
"The district court erred," Judge Matthew E. Johnson wrote in his decision, "because the city's evidence of nuisance activity consisted solely of incidents
occurring 15 or more months before the hearing on the city's request for the permanent injunction."
"You cannot predict when you're going to get your two nuisance violations," she said.
Land said there have been no police calls to Krengel's home or complaints from neighbors since she moved back in August.
Land said the attorneys who represented the city could seek to bring the case before the state Supreme Court.
Krengel said she has endured "public humiliation" and will discuss with her attorney whether to seek damages against the city for the eviction.
