Attorney general responsibilities specification in civil law enforcement actions

Summary

When the attorney general initiates a civil law enforcement action for Minnesota, the bill says they act only in the public interest, not as the lawyer for any other state department, agency, board, commission, or branch. It also makes clear that other state entities are not automatically parties to the suit and their records can be obtained by the opposing side only through subpoenas to non‑parties, while the attorney general does not control those records unless they were created for the action.
