District of Minnesota

The District of Minnesota, headquartered at the Warren E. Burger Federal Building and United States Courthouse in St. Paul with additional courtrooms in Minneapolis, Duluth, and Fergus Falls, serves the entire state with 7 authorized judgeships. Minneapolis-St. Paul's vibrant medical-device industry, anchored by companies like Medtronic and Boston Scientific, has made the district a nationally significant venue for medical-device patent and product-liability litigation. The district also handles a substantial volume of immigration-related civil matters.
