Bemidji Jail Lists Apolinar Femat on Four Counts
BEMIDJI (trfnews.i234.me) — A Beltrami County Jail record lists Apolinar Femat on four vehicle-related allegations.
The record shows a custody date of Sunday, October 25, 2026.
All four counts appear under case number 26017385, with District Court identified as the court branch.
The allegations concern an ignition interlock device, vehicle title paperwork, an instruction permit, and vehicle registration.
Ignition Interlock Count Listed as Gross Misdemeanor
The first entry cites Minnesota Statute 171.306, subdivision 6(c).
The jail describes the allegation as operating a motor vehicle without a required ignition interlock device.
An ignition interlock device measures breath alcohol levels and can prevent a vehicle from starting.
The cited provision applies to drivers holding certain restricted licenses under Minnesota law.
Minnesota Statute 171.09 classifies operating without the required functioning device as a gross misdemeanor.
However, the listing does not allege a new impaired-driving offense or include any alcohol test results.
Three Additional Vehicle Allegations
The second entry cites Minnesota Statute 168A.10 and concerns delivering a vehicle title.
This statute generally addresses transferring vehicle ownership and handling title documents.
The jail listing marks this entry with the severity code PM, meaning petty misdemeanor.
A third entry cites Minnesota Statute 171.05, subdivision 1(a).
That law sets requirements for adult instruction permits, including having a qualified licensed driver seated beside the permit holder.
The jail labels this allegation a misdemeanor.
The fourth count concerns vehicle registration under Minnesota Statute 168.09, subdivision 4.
The jail describes it as operating a vehicle with expired registration and lists it as a petty misdemeanor.
The cited subdivision addresses display requirements for vehicles registered under a monthly registration system.
The excerpt does not explain which registration requirement officials allege was violated.
Custody and Court Information
The record shows $0.00 in its bail or fine field.
That figure does not independently establish the person’s release eligibility or any conditions imposed by a court.
No court hearing date appears in the supplied jail excerpt.
The entry does not provide a location or detailed description of the alleged driving incident.
Femat’s age is not listed in the supplied information.
The excerpt also does not include an outcome for any of the four allegations.
Where to Review Official Information
The Beltrami County inmate search provides public jail listing information.
The Beltrami County Sheriff’s Office oversees the county’s jail operations in Bemidji.

Public custody records can change, and a jail listing alone does not establish a conviction.
Femat is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
