331A.10 CHANGE OF NAME OR DISCONTINUANCE OF NEWSPAPER.
    Subdivision 1. Change of name. When a public notice is required or ordered to be published
in a particular newspaper and the name of the newspaper is changed before the publication is
completed, the publication shall be made or continued in the newspaper under its new name with
the same effect as if the name had not been changed. The proof of the publication, in addition to
other requirements, shall state the change of name and specify the period of publication in the
newspaper under each name.
    Subd. 2. Discontinuance. When a newspaper ceases to be published before the publication
of a public notice is commenced, or when commenced ceases before the publication is completed,
the order for publication, when one is required in the first instance, may be amended by order of
the court or judge, to designate another newspaper, as may be necessary. If no order is required in
the first instance, publication may be made or completed in any other qualified newspaper. Any
time during which the notice is published in the first newspaper shall be calculated as a part of
the time required for the publication, proof of which may be made by affidavit of any person
acquainted with the facts.
