Felony Failure-to-Appear Charge
Minnesota Statute 609.49 covers criminal failure to appear after release from custody.
Subdivision 1 applies to people charged with or convicted of a felony.
The statute requires an intentional failure to appear when a court appearance is required.
It also requires qualifying notice or a release condition requiring the person’s appearance.

The potential penalty depends partly on the underlying felony offense.
Minnesota law also includes a provision involving voluntary surrender within 48 hours.
That provision can require dismissal under certain circumstances described in the statute.
It does not apply when the person appears because law enforcement apprehended them.
Booked at Crookston Facility
The booking information lists September 10, 2026, as White’s incarceration date.
The Northwest Regional Corrections Center is located in Crookston.
The facility is operated through Tri-County Community Corrections.
It serves Polk, Norman, and Red Lake counties in northwestern Minnesota.
The information provided does not include a release date or bail amount.
It also does not describe the court appearance White allegedly missed.

Court Process Continues
