The Otto Bremer Trust case in
Ramsey County District Court provides insights into the way that Minnesota
Attorney General Keith Ellison is approaching public accountability, conflicts
of interest, and other legal issues as they apply to Minnesota foundations. The
April 29, 2022 ruling of Ramsey County Judge Robert Awsumb now becomes case law
that is applicable to Minnesota’s philanthropic institutions. This
CLE will provide an overview of the legal
theories articulated by the Attorney General’s Office, and the view of the Court
on those theories. It will also include six takeaways for all foundation leaders and
their counsel.
