Can I Get Out of My Apartment Lease Legally Under These Circumstances

My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Minnesota

So here's the deal. I gave my 60 day notice to vacate in a timely fashion. I later changed my mind and gave them another notice that said I want to stay and sign a new lease.

Now, I have changed my mind once again (long long story) and want to get out of my lease.

Here's the thing - The 2nd notice I sent them about disregarding my 60 day notice, I didn't sign it, it doesn't have any signature on it at all. I printed it out and forgot to sign, and they also never asked me to sign it.

Would this mean that it's not valid, and I can stick with the original plan to vacate with no legal consequences? I never did sign a new lease either.

I hope this makes sense...

It seems you are stuck with your 2nd notice.

Minnesota law does not state that a notice to vacate must be signed...nor do I know of any state that requires the notice to be signed.

Since you haven't signed a new lease, simply give them another 60 day notice now.

Thank you very much for this answer. It's been pretty difficult to get any kind of straightforward legal answer to this :(

Although, it does seem pretty crazy that it doesn't need to be signed. What if the landlord was simply not a very ethical person and held a grudge against a certain tenant and forged a signature-less document on their behalf? I'm not saying this is my case at all; I'm the one who's been flip-flopping...either way, it doesn't seem like it should be legal...
