Can You Describe Minnesota's "Comparative Fault" Rule?
Comparative fault is a legal term that compares the responsibility of one person against another. If an injury victim is 10% at fault for their injury, then their “comparative fault” is 10% while the other driver’s “comparative fault” is 90%. In Minnesota, a person who is found to be partially responsible for an accident may still make a recovery against another driver, so long as their fault does not exceed the fault of the other driver.
