minor consumption ticket
Hello. I am beside myself and want
to be prepared for what my daughter
may potentially face with her latest
trouble. She has received two minor
consumption tickets in the State of
Minnesota/Dakota County in the past
year and a half. She paid fines and
had to attend some classes.
However, as of last night she
received her third but in Brookings
South Dakota. She is 17. Any
thoughts on how it works with a
ticket in another state vs Minnesota
and what type of consequences could
be in store for her (especially drivers
license privelages)? Thanks for any
help or insight on this. There was no
driving involved on any of these just
fyi.

Re: minor consumption ticket
She may have two separate issues. First, she has a new criminal charge in South Dakota. To determine how the law treats such offenses in that state, you must make your inquiry of a South Dakota Lawyer.
Second, she is likely on probation for her previous Minnesota charges and the new violation likely violates the conditions of that probation. that means the court in Minnesota can impose any penalties previously stayed including potential jail time, community service etc...
