Description

Respondents Angela Collins and 17 other former students of the Minnesota School of Businesss (MSB) Sports Medicine Technician program brought both common law and statutory claims against MSB. They alleged that MSB made false, misleading, and confusing statements about its sports medicine program. Four days before trial, respondents accepted MSBs Rule 68 offer of judgment for $200,000 "together with any costs and disbursements allowed by the District Court." Respondents subsequently applied to the district court for costs and disbursements, including attorney fees, under the private attorney general statute, Minn. Stat. § 8.31. The court awarded respondents $7,088.75 in costs and disbursements, but denied any attorney fees on the ground that respondents claims did not benefit the public. The court of appeals reversed and awarded attorney fees concluding that (1) the offer of judgment was enforceable, (2) respondents qualified as prevailing parties under the private attorney general statute, and (3) respondents claims benefited the public. We affirm and remand.
