Misdemeanors & Felonies in Minnesota

Minnesota classifies criminal offenses into two main categories: misdemeanors and felonies. While misdemeanors are less severe than felonies, being convicted of a misdemeanor can still lead to imprisonment and hefty fines.

In Minnesota, misdemeanors are further divided into three types:

Petty Misdemeanor: This is the least serious misdemeanor offense in the state, carrying a maximum penalty of a $300 fine.

Misdemeanor: This category of misdemeanor can result in a maximum jail term of 90 days and/or a fine of up to $1,000.

Gross Misdemeanor: Considered the most serious misdemeanor offense, a conviction can lead to a maximum jail term of 364 days and/or a fine of up to $3,000.

In contrast, Minnesota does not utilize a classification system for felony offenses like other states. Instead, the state law specifies the maximum penalties for each felony. Convictions for felonies can result in imprisonment and substantial fines, often amounting to tens of thousands of dollars. Additionally, individuals convicted of felonies may face the loss of certain rights, such as the right to vote or own a firearm.

What Should I Do If I’VE BEEN ARRESTED?

  • 1. Don’t Talk to the Police!

    It’s crucial to know that while you should remain respectful with authorities, you have the right to remain silent. This a right protected by the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which makes it clear individuals are protected from being compelled to be a witness against him / herself in criminal matters.

    It’s important to note that:

    • Talking will not help you avoid an arrest. If law enforcement has probable cause to arrest you, then they will arrest you.
    • By speaking, you risk making a confession or providing information that can be used to indict you, even unknowingly.
    • Even if you feel that information being discussed is “harmless,” it is still in your best interest to invoke your Fifth Amendment right.
  • 2. Ask for a Lawyer!
    As soon as you can you should elect your right to have a defense attorney present. A Minnesota criminal defense lawyer or public defender can ensure the police do not violate your rights and help you avoid saying anything incriminating during questioning. Caplan & Tamburino Law Firm is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so that we can be by your side whenever you need us. Call now!
