About CAH

The Court of Administrative Hearings (CAH) is Minnesota's administrative court. CAH *renders justice *through fair, timely, and impartial administrative hearings and high-quality dispute resolution services. CAH is an *energetic, responsive, and respected *service provider to Minnesotans, state and local governments, and the workers’ compensation system. 

CAH is the largest of three Executive Branch Courts with over 60 full-time equivalents located in St. Paul and Duluth. CAH, with 30 judges, is comparable in size to the Ramsey County District Court with 32 judges.

CAH has exclusive, trial-level jurisdiction over 200 unique areas of administrative law and workers’ compensation. This means the decisions of CAH are appealable to higher-level appellate courts (Minnesota Court of Appeals, Minnesota Supreme Court, and Minnesota Workers’ Compensation Court of Appeals) and not at trial-level district courts.
