Two DAC-IPS Counts Listed<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law addresses driving after cancellation or denial under Section 171.24.<\/p>\n

Subdivision 5 covers certain canceled or denied driving privileges.<\/p>\n

The provision applies when a person has notice of the cancellation or denial.<\/p>\n

It also requires alleged operation of a motor vehicle despite that restriction.<\/p>\n

However, the roster does not explain why two separate counts are listed.<\/p>\n

Gross Misdemeanor Under State Law<\/h2>\n

Minnesota law classifies the applicable DAC-IPS offense as a gross misdemeanor.<\/p>\n

The booking information does not provide additional facts behind either count.<\/p>\n

It does not identify the vehicle allegedly involved.<\/p>\n

No details about a traffic stop or other circumstances were provided.<\/p>\n

No police officer names are included in this report.<\/p>\n

September 5 Booking<\/h2>\n

The Clay County Correctional Facility is located in Moorhead.<\/p>\n

The roster does not provide a final court outcome for Sheehan.<\/p>\n

Sheehan is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n

Charges can change as prosecutors review evidence and court proceedings continue.<\/p>\n
