My question involves criminal law for the state of: Minnesota
A couple Months ago I was given a citation for Trespassing (609.605), and a Minor consumption (340A.503). On my letter for my arraignment only the Minor Consumption is listed, I am assuming that the trespassing will still be there, am I right to assume so?
My buddy was there with me, and he ended up going in earlier for a different offense commited earlier, and his Trespassing and Minor were "thrown" out. This act was very stupid of us, and while my buddy didn't learn, I sure have.
Is there a possiblity of jail time for a first offense? Or rather what circumstances warrent jail time on a first offense? We were both very polite and cooperated the whole way with the officers. And Im sure neither of us blew anything, if at all. We had only had one drink prior (They found a can by us and we admitted to drinking right away).

It's extremely unlikely, although technically any offense that carries potential jail time has a potential for jail time.Quote:
