During an election year campaign committees of candidates who file for office are required to file three Reports of Receipts and Expenditures: pre-primary, pre-general, and year-end. Campaign committees of candidates whose office is not up for election and candidates who chose not to file for office, file one year-end report. Offices open for election in 2004 were: House of Representatives and certain Judicial seats. Political party units, political committees, and political funds that attempt to influence state elections also filed pre-primary, pre-general, and year-end reports. This summary is based on reports for election year 2004, as filed with the Board by principal campaign committees of candidates for 134 state representative seats (311 candidates filed), 38 candidates for elective judicial seats, and a special election in Senate District 37. Additionally, this summary includes data supplied by 4 constitutional officeholders; 67 senate officeholders; 7 judicial officeholders; 18 judicial candidates; 442 committees of candidates who did not file for election in 2004; 343 political party units; and 381 political committees and political funds. Comparison of total data from election year 2004 by principal campaign committees, political committees, or political funds with similar data from election years 2000 and 2002 is included in this summary. The data has not been verified or audited. This summary includes, for each candidate committee, political party unit, political committee or political fund, total contributions received; total transfers to candidates, committees, or funds; total expenditures; beginning and ending cash balances; and the total amount of public subsidy received by qualifying candidates. Outstanding loans payable, unpaid bills, or disbursements other than campaign expenditures or transfers to candidates are not itemized in the summary but are reflected in the totals reported in the summary. Campaign committees for constitutional and legislative office must abide by certain contribution limits. There is no contribution limit for elective judgeship candidates. House candidates reported receiving a total of $4,592,793 from individuals, lobbyists, political committees and political funds; and $569,993 from political parties (see page12) A total of $440,057 in contributions were reported received by 38 judicial candidates (see page 27). A listing of the names of individuals, committees, or funds contributing in aggregate more than $100 to legislative or district court candidates and more than $200 to constitutional office candidates and a list of contributors to political party units, political committees and political funds begins on page 51. Included in the total contributions received by House of Representative candidates were 5,823 donations of more than $100 each totaling $2,106,401 (41% of total contributions received). Judicial candidates received contributions from 513 donations of more than $100 each totaling $284,628 (65% of total contributions received). Most candidates voluntarily agree to limit expenditures in order to receive public subsidies. These subsidies include direct payments to eligible candidates during election years and the right to participate in the Political Contribution Refund (PCR) program. Agreements to abide by spending limits in order to receive money from the State Elections Campaign Fund were signed by 97% of registered house of representative candidates filing for office. A total of $1,736,164 in public subsidy was distributed to 267 eligible house of representative candidates. Campaign expenditures are made for the purpose of influencing the nomination or election of a candidate and apply toward the expenditure limit applicable to partisan candidates who signed a Public Subsidy Agreement. In 2004, 311 candidates who filed for the house of representatives reported making total campaign expenditures of $5,525,826, a 10% increase in campaign spending when compared with total expenditures of $5,027,261 in 2002. According to statistics compiled from candidate reports, winners outspent losers in 78% of the state house races. There were no house districts without opposition in the general election. Four constitutional officers who were not up for election in 2004 reported receiving $923,365 in total contributions and reported making total campaign expenditures of $424,103. State senate office holders reported receiving a total of $653,458 in contributions and making total campaign expenditures of $235,310. Other candidate committees who did not file for office reported receiving $209,242 in contributions and making total campaign expenditures of $107,632. This summary includes selected data from reports filed by political party units, political committees and political funds. Reports filed by 343 political party committees and 381 political committees and political funds disclosed receipt of contributions totaling $63,357,003 from which they made total contributions of $7,180,832 to state candidate committees and political committees and political funds. Included in the $63,357,003: • $7,371,139 was contributed to Democratic Farmer Labor party units which made $2,249,060 in contributions to state candidate committees and other committees and $1,607,945 in independent expenditures; • $7,204,568 was contributed to Republican Party of Minnesota party units which made $420,875 in contributions to state candidate committees and other committees and $1,251,473 in independent expenditures; • $32,551 was contributed to Independence Party of Minnesota party units which made $1,440 in contributions to state candidate committees and other committees; • $61,210 was contributed to Green Party of Minnesota party units which made $675 in contributions to state candidate committees and other committees; Contributions made by individuals to qualifying political party units also qualify for a refund under the PCR program.

[email protected] Letter from the Editor t’s up to us to demonstrate what’s possible, says Cornell Moore. The Dorsey lawyer, like the other recipients of this year’s Diversity and Inclusion Awards, means it and lives it. That’s what makes it so fulfilling to Minnesota ILawyer to bring you, for the third year, a roster of attorneys and judges who demonstrate what’s possible. Some of the possible achievements are philosophical or psychological. That may include helping lawyers and law firms get past their fear of the “other,” bringing race equity into different areas of work, forging relationships and creating a culture that supports excellence, accomplishment and diversity. Some of the possible achievements are about the big picture. That may be the demographics of the judiciary, the collateral consequences of crime, and taking care of the pipeline through mentoring, training and educational scholarships. And some are at the nuts-and-bolts level, like getting billable hour credits for diversity work, opening up the practice to foreign lawyers, providing free online education, or increasing summer clerkships. It’s also the daily nuts- and-bolts work of attending committee meetings, keeping relationships going, watching out for one’s own implicit biases and reaching out to elected officials and candidates. That may be a long list (and there’s more), but it demonstrates what’s possible, and Minnesota, thanks to our honorees, has it all.

  • October 2005.Qxd
    Hill & Lake Press Serving the East Isles, Lowry Hill, Kenwood Isles, and Cedar Isles Dean Neighborhoods VOLUME 29 NUMBER 10 OCTOBER 22, 2005 ISLES BIKE TRAIL REPLACED West Bay and North Arm Greening Up Chris Wiencke MPRB Planning The unseasonably warm weather this fall extended the growing season, offering a grace period in which the newly planted grass around Lake of the Isles’ west bay could take hold. Parkland disguised as an unsightly con- struction zone for the past two summers is beginning to look like a park once again. Extremely wet weather has subjected the recently completed improvements to a rigorous test, a test they have passed with flying colors. Recent torrential rains would have completely flooded the parkland surrounding the west bay and north arm; today it remains high and dry. Though the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board’s efforts to renovate Lake of the Isles Regional Park—a project spanning several years—in 2005 were limited by inadequate funding, much has been accom- plished this construction season. The parkland around the west bay and north arm, so prone to flooding in recent years, has been filled in above the 100-year flood level, then graded and seeded. The north arm, not yet green at this writing, was seeded later than the west bay. Depending on weather conditions, that area may not look like parkland until spring. Bike trail replaced Lake of the Isles after October 2005 rain Lake Photos by Dorothy Childers The replacement of the bike trail may be the most enthusiastically hailed development of all.

  • A Primer on Changes Wrought in the Wake of Justice David Lillehaug's
    OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE MINNESOTA STATE BAR ASSOCIATION VOLUME LXXVII NUMBER X NOVEMBER 2020 www.mnbar.org A primer on changes wrought in the wake of Justice David Lillehaug’s 2016 article on unpublished appellate decisions ‘PUBLISHED’ AND ‘UNPUBLISHED’ REVISITED BY JEFF MARKOWITZ AND STEPHEN WARNER 14 Bench&Bar of Minnesota s November 2020 www.mnbar.org A primer on changes wrought in the wake of Justice David Lillehaug’s 2016 article on unpublished appellate decisions ustice David Lillehaug garnered much at- tention when, in a December 2016 cover story in these pages, he called for five changes to the law governing publication J of Minnesota Court of Appeals opinions.1 Effective August 1, 2020, the repeal of Minn. Stat. §480A.08, subd. 3(c)2 and amendments to the Minnesota Rules of Civil Appellate Procedure3 have largely implemented three of Justice Lillehaug’s suggestions and fur- thered the spirit of the other two. Litigants have good cause to believe that citing unpublished court of appeals opinions in briefing is worthwhile. Such opinions are not binding, but they can—and do—per- suade. The court of appeals has made that clear by expressly following unpublished opin- ions in at least three unpublished opinions and eight published opinions. And the Min- nesota Supreme Court has cited such unpub- lished opinions at least twice. But a few misconceptions must be dis- pelled to understand the lay of the land with respect to what were known, until the recent amendments, as unpublished decisions. As we will discuss in more detail, whether Minne- sota Supreme Court decisions are published or unpublished is irrelevant to whether they are binding; they are always binding prec- edent (as long as they are majority opinions, or unanimous4).
