SF 5224 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Disorderly house crime expansion provision

This bill expands the legal definition of a "disorderly house" in Minnesota to include locations where high-risk sexual activities regularly occur with the owner's or manager's knowledge. It specifically defines high-risk sexual conduct as activities likely to spread diseases through bodily fluid exchange, such as anonymous sex or sex with multiple partners. The changes apply to crimes committed on or after August 1, 2026, and do not alter the existing definitions for disorderly houses involving alcohol, gambling, prostitution, or drug sales.
