Moorhead (trfnews.i234.me) – Floyd Gene Paul, 52, was booked into Clay County Jail on Wednesday, October 14, 2026.
The official Clay County inmate roster records his booking at 1:48 p.m.
The Glyndon Police Department is identified as the arresting agency.
The jail record lists one allegation involving a domestic abuse no-contact order violation.
The allegation references two or more qualifying previous convictions within a ten-year period.
Repeat DANCO Violation Allegation
According to the booking record, Paul is listed under “DANCO Violation w/n 10 yrs of 2 or more Convictions.”
DANCO stands for Domestic Abuse No Contact Order.
These orders are issued by courts in certain criminal proceedings involving domestic abuse or related offenses.
A DANCO can restrict contact with a protected person.
It may also prohibit specific actions while a criminal case or probationary period continues.
However, the jail listing does not identify the particular order Paul allegedly violated.
It also does not describe the reported contact or actions involved.
No information about the protected person appears in the supplied record.
What Minnesota Law Says About DANCO Violations
Minnesota Statute 629.75 establishes rules and penalties for violating domestic abuse no-contact orders.
Subdivision 2(d) addresses certain violations involving two or more qualifying previous domestic violence-related offenses.
Those prior offenses must meet the conditions and timing requirements established under state law.
Under this provision, a qualifying repeat violation is classified as a felony.
However, the jail record does not identify the previous convictions referenced in Paul’s allegation.
It also does not include case numbers or dates for those convictions.
Readers can review Minnesota Statute 629.75 – Domestic Abuse No Contact Orders.
Possible Penalties for a Felony DANCO Violation
A felony conviction under Minnesota Statute 629.75, subdivision 2(d), can carry up to five years in prison.
The law also allows a fine of up to $10,000, or both penalties.
Certain probationary sentences may include mandatory incarceration and counseling requirements.
However, these are possible statutory consequences, not a sentence imposed against Paul.
The booking record does not establish the outcome of any related criminal proceedings.
Location of Alleged Violation Not Confirmed
The booking record identifies the Glyndon Police Department as the arresting agency.
However, that information does not establish where the alleged violation occurred.
No street address, residence, or other specific incident location appears in the supplied listing.
The record also does not identify the alleged offense date.
Additional court documents would be needed to clarify the circumstances surrounding the allegation.
Clay County Jail and Court Information
Clay County Correctional Facility is located in Moorhead, Minnesota.
However, the jail’s location does not establish where Paul’s alleged violation occurred.

It also does not confirm whether prosecutors formally filed a criminal complaint.
Public case information may be available through Minnesota Court Records Online.
Presumption of Innocence
