[13] The court hearing required by HUD allows parties to raise equitable defenses in accordance with each state's existing law. However, equitable defenses to contracts permitted by Minnesota law, such as laches and unconscionability, are different than the equitable factors Lor wants the court to address. See, e.g., LaValle v. Kulkay, 277 N.W.2d 400, 403 n. 3 (Minn.1979) (laches an equitable defense); Flynn v. Sawyer, 272 N.W.2d 904, 908 (Minn.1978) (unconscionability based on equity powers of court).
