       Minnesota law recognizes several different grounds for eviction, including
nonpayment of rent, holding over after a tenancy has ended, and breach of lease. See Minn.
Stat. §§ 504B.285, subds. 1(a)(2), (3) (2024); 504B.291 (2024) (concerning breach of
lease, holdover, and nonpayment of rent as grounds for eviction). The waiver-by-
acceptance doctrine at issue in this case applies to evictions based on a tenant’s conduct
that materially breaches their lease. There are also waiver rules that apply to holdover and
non-payment evictions. References to waiver by acceptance in this opinion refer only to
the doctrine as applied to acceptance of rent after a known breach, and not any of these
related, but distinct, doctrines.
