SCRA / military lease termination in Minnesota
A service member who gets orders for active duty, deployment or a permanent change of station after signing a rental contract may cancel it with no penalty and a full refund of deposits, if the orders make it impractical to keep the contract. Notice must be in writing with a copy of the orders. Termination takes effect the day after the landlord receives proper notice.
