Minn. Stat. § 524.3-309: INFORMAL APPOINTMENT PROCEEDINGS; REGISTRAR NOT SATISFIED.

If the registrar is not satisfied that a requested informal appointment of a personal representative should be made because of failure to meet the requirements of sections 524.3-307 and 524.3-308, or for any other reason, the registrar may decline the application. A declination of informal appointment is not an adjudication and does not preclude appointment in formal proceedings.
