Minnesota Administrative Rules

3310.2917 PUBLIC ACCESS TO HEARINGS.

Appeal hearings are public hearings. An unemployment law judge may exclude nonessential persons only when necessary due to physical space limitations or to maintain decorum. Upon the judge's motion or upon the motion of a party, a judge may sequester witnesses due to space limitations or to avoid prejudice or collusion.

The judge must make a recording of all testimony that is the official record. No other voice recordings or pictures may be made in the hearing room of any party, attorney, representative, or witness involved in the hearing while the hearing is in session.
