Gross Misdemeanor Charge

The first charge cites Minnesota Statute 629.75, subdivision 2(c).

It is a court order issued in certain criminal or juvenile proceedings.

The order can restrict contact with a protected person.

The booking record does not describe the alleged contact in this case.

It also does not identify the protected person.
