| Minnesota state court questions |
|
Is the top state court called "The Minnesota Supreme Court"?
If so, is it liberal or conservative?

| 1. The Minnesota Supreme Court is the top appellate court. |

The intermediate appellate court is called the Court of Appeals. Many years ago I was a law clerk for the MN Supreme Court, and my impression at least at the time was that they were pretty middle of the road. The new Chief Justice is a nice guy, very smart. Even though he was appointed by Pawlenty, I think he will be fair with respect to the recount if the courts get involved.
