Lee Michael Scheurer, Appellant/Cross-Respondent v. Douglas Shrewsbury as Special Administrator for the Estate of Ann ...
Syllabus
1. For purposes of recovering preverdict interest, serving a written offer of settlement does not negate the requirement in Minnesota Statutes section 549.09, 1 subdivision 1(b) (2024), that an "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." 2. Under Minnesota Statutes section 549.09, subdivision 1(b) (2024), the prevailing party is entitled to preverdict interest on the judgment, which does not include collateral sources deducted from the jury verdict. Affirmed in part, reversed in part.
