Subdivision 1.

When owed; rate.

(a) When a judgment or award is for the recovery
of money, including a judgment for the recovery of taxes, interest from the time of the
verdict, award, or report until judgment is finally entered shall be computed by the court
administrator or arbitrator as provided in paragraph (c) and added to the judgment or award.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by contract or allowed by law, preverdict,
preaward, or prereport interest on pecuniary damages shall be computed as provided in
paragraph (c) new text begin , clause (1), regardless of the amount, new text end from the time of the commencement of
the action or a demand for arbitration, or the time of a written notice of claim, whichever
occurs first, except as provided herein. The action must be commenced within two years
of a written notice of claim for interest to begin to accrue from the time of the notice of
claim. If either party serves a written offer of settlement, the other party may serve a
written acceptance or a written counteroffer within 30 days. After that time, interest on the
judgment or award shall be calculated by the judge or arbitrator in the following manner.
The prevailing party shall receive interest on any judgment or award from the time of
commencement of the action or a demand for arbitration, or the time of a written notice
of claim, or as to special damages from the time when special damages were incurred, if
later, until the time of verdict, award, or report only if the amount of its offer is closer to
the judgment or award than the amount of the opposing party's offer. If the amount of
the losing party's offer was closer to the judgment or award than the prevailing party's
offer, the prevailing party shall receive interest only on the amount of the settlement offer
or the judgment or award, whichever is less, and only from the time of commencement
of the action or a demand for arbitration, or the time of a written notice of claim, or as
to special damages from when the special damages were incurred, if later, until the time
the settlement offer was made. Subsequent offers and counteroffers supersede the legal
effect of earlier offers and counteroffers. For the purposes of clause (2), the amount of
settlement offer must be allocated between past and future damages in the same proportion
as determined by the trier of fact. Except as otherwise provided by contract or allowed by
law, preverdict, preaward, or prereport interest shall not be awarded on the following:

(1) judgments, awards, or benefits in workers' compensation cases, but not including
third-party actions;

(2) judgments or awards for future damages;

(3) punitive damages, fines, or other damages that are noncompensatory in nature;

(4) judgments or awards not in excess of the amount specified in section 491A.01; and

(5) that portion of any verdict, award, or report which is founded upon interest, or
costs, disbursements, attorney fees, or other similar items added by the court or arbitrator.

(c)(1) For a judgment or award of $50,000 or less or a judgment or award for
or against the state or a political subdivision of the state, regardless of the amount, the
interest shall be computed as simple interest per annum. The rate of interest shall be based
on the secondary market yield of one year United States Treasury bills, calculated on a
bank discount basis as provided in this section.

On or before the 20th day of December of each year the state court administrator
shall determine the rate from the one-year constant maturity treasury yield for the most
recent calendar month, reported on a monthly basis in the latest statistical release of the
board of governors of the Federal Reserve System. This yield, rounded to the nearest one
percent, or four percent, whichever is greater, shall be the annual interest rate during the
succeeding calendar year. The state court administrator shall communicate the interest
rates to the court administrators and sheriffs for use in computing the interest on verdicts
and shall make the interest rates available to arbitrators.

This clause applies to any section that references section 549.09 by citation for the
purposes of computing an interest rate on any amount owed to or by the state or a political
subdivision of the state, regardless of the amount.

(2) For a judgment or award over $50,000, other than a judgment or award for or
against the state or a political subdivision of the state, the interest rate shall be ten percent
per year until paid.

(3) When a judgment creditor, or the judgment creditor's attorney or agent, has
received a payment after entry of judgment, whether the payment is made voluntarily by
or on behalf of the judgment debtor, or is collected by legal process other than execution
levy where a proper return has been filed with the court administrator, the judgment
creditor, or the judgment creditor's attorney, before applying to the court administrator
for an execution shall file with the court administrator an affidavit of partial satisfaction.
The affidavit must state the dates and amounts of payments made upon the judgment after
the most recent affidavit of partial satisfaction filed, if any; the part of each payment that
is applied to taxable disbursements and to accrued interest and to the unpaid principal
balance of the judgment; and the accrued, but the unpaid interest owing, if any, after
application of each payment.

(d) This section does not apply to arbitrations between employers and employees
under chapter 179 or 179A. An arbitrator is neither required to nor prohibited from
awarding interest under chapter 179 or under section 179A.16 for essential employees.

(e) For purposes of this subdivision:

(1) "state" includes a department, board, agency, commission, court, or other entity
in the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the state; and

(2) "political subdivision" includes a town, statutory or home rule charter city,

Sec. 9.

Minnesota Statutes 2014, section 401.10, subdivision 1, is amended to read:

Subdivision 1.

Aid calculations.

To determine the community corrections aid
amount to be paid to each participating county, the commissioner of corrections must
apply the following formula:

(1) For each of the 87 counties in the state, a percent score must be calculated for
each of the following five factors:

(i) percent of the total state population aged ten to 24 residing within the county
according to the most recent federal census, and, in the intervening years between the
taking of the federal census, according to the most recent estimate of the state demographer;

(ii) percent of the statewide total number of felony case filings occurring within the
county, as determined by the state court administrator;

(iii) percent of the statewide total number of juvenile case filings occurring within
the county, as determined by the state court administrator;

(iv) percent of the statewide total number of gross misdemeanor case filings
occurring within the county, as determined by the state court administrator; and

(v) percent of the total statewide number of convicted felony offenders who did
not receive an executed prison sentence, as monitored and reported by the Sentencing
Guidelines Commission.

The percents in items (ii) to (v) must be calculated by combining the most recent
three-year period of available data. The percents in items (i) to (v) each must sum to 100
percent across the 87 counties.

(2) For each of the 87 counties, the county's percents in clause (1), items (i) to (v),
must be weighted, summed, and divided by the sum of the weights to yield an average
percent for each county, referred to as the county's "composite need percent." When
performing this calculation, the weight for each of the percents in clause (1), items (i) to
(v), is 1.0. The composite need percent must sum to 100 percent across the 87 counties.

(3) For each of the 87 counties, the county's "adjusted net tax capacity percent" is
the county's adjusted net tax capacity amount, defined in the same manner as it is defined
for cities in section 477A.011, subdivision 20, divided by the statewide total adjusted net
tax capacity amount. The adjusted net tax capacity percent must sum to 100 percent
across the 87 counties.

(4) For each of the 87 counties, the county's composite need percent must be divided
by the county's adjusted net tax capacity percent to produce a ratio that, when multiplied
by the county's composite need percent, results in the county's "tax base adjusted need
percent."

(5) For each of the 87 counties, the county's tax base adjusted need percent must
be added to twice the composite need percent, and the sum must be divided by 3, to
yield the county's "weighted need percent."

(6) Each participating county's weighted need percent must be added to the weighted
need percent of each other participating county to yield the "total weighted need percent
for participating counties."

(7) Each participating county's weighted need percent must be divided by the total
weighted need percent for participating counties to yield the county's "share percent." The
share percents for participating counties must sum to 100 percent.

(8) Each participating county's "base funding amount" is the aid amount that the
county received under this section for fiscal year 1995 new text begin plus the amount received in
caseload or workload reduction, felony caseload reduction, and sex offender supervision
grants in fiscal year 2015 new text end , as reported by the commissioner of corrections. In fiscal year
1997 and thereafter, no county's aid amount under this section may be less than its base
funding amount, provided that the total amount appropriated for this purpose is at least as
much as the aggregate base funding amount defined in clause (9).

(9) The "aggregate base funding amount" is equal to the sum of the base funding
amounts for all participating counties. If a county that participated under this section
deleted text begin during fiscal year 1995 deleted text end chooses not to participate in any given year, then the aggregate
base funding amount must be reduced by that county's base funding amount. If a county
that did not participate under this section in fiscal year 1995 chooses to participate deleted text begin in any
given year deleted text end new text begin on or after July 1, 2015 new text end , then the aggregate base funding amount must be
increased by the amount of aid that the county would have received had it participated in
fiscal year 1995 new text begin plus the estimated amount it would have received in caseload or workload
reduction, felony caseload reduction, and sex offender supervision grants in fiscal year
2015 new text end , as reported by the commissioner of corrections, and the amount of increase shall be
that county's base funding amount.

(10) In any given year, the total amount appropriated for this purpose first must be
allocated to participating counties in accordance with each county's base funding amount.
Then, any remaining amount in excess of the aggregate base funding amount must be
allocated to participating counties in proportion to each county's share percent, and is
referred to as the county's "formula amount."

Each participating county's "community corrections aid amount" equals the sum of
(i) the county's base funding amount, and (ii) the county's formula amount.

(11) However, if in any year the total amount appropriated for the purpose of this
section is less than the aggregate base funding amount, then each participating county's
community corrections aid amount is the product of (i) the county's base funding amount
multiplied by (ii) the ratio of the total amount appropriated to the aggregate base funding
amount.

For each participating county, the county's community corrections aid amount
calculated in this subdivision is the total amount of subsidy to which the county is entitled
under sections 401.01 to 401.16.
