Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Minnesota

It depends. If the requirements of the mechanic's lien statute were met, then it could be possible to place a lien on the property as a "material supplier." This should be further reviewed by an attorney as there are very restrictive and time sensitive requirements. If you do not have lien rights, you do retain the right of suing the contractor directly for breach of contract. You should contact an attorney right away.

Here is a link to certain Minnesota statutes for your study: https://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/statutes/?id=514 I suggest that with no delay you obtain a private legal opinion from an attorney as to your personal issues and possible paths of recourse.

I agree with the other commentary. The Minnesota mechanic's lien statutes does allow material suppliers to place liens on properties to which their materials were supplied. However, certain requirements must be met. Thus, I would need more facts as to the project.
