Minnesota sets the BAC limit at 0.08 for DUI charges, with first-offense penalties including misdemeanor — up to 90 days jail, $1,000 fine, 90-day license revocation. Minnesota imposes a duty to retreat before using force in self-defense outside the home. Minnesota does offer expungement for eligible offenses — an important option for protecting future employment and immigration status. For non-citizen Arab Americans, dui/dwi defense convictions can trigger deportation proceedings. An Arabic-speaking defense attorney in Minnesota evaluates both criminal penalties and immigration consequences before advising on pleas or trial strategy.

Minnesota criminal defense laws

DUI / DWI Laws
Misdemeanor — up to 90 days jail, $1,000 fine, 90-day license revocation
Gross misdemeanor — up to 1 year jail, $3,000 fine, license plate impoundment
Minnesota uses "DWI." Refusal to test is a separate crime. Enhanced penalties for BAC 0.16% or higher.
Drug Laws
Legal for adults 21+ (up to 2 oz flower in public). Retail sales began in 2025.
Assault & Self-Defense
Misdemeanor (5th degree assault) — up to 90 days jail, $1,000 fine
Felony (1st-3rd degree assault) — up to 20 years prison, $30,000 fine
Minnesota requires a duty to retreat before using deadly force, except in your home (Castle Doctrine). You may use reasonable force without retreating when defending against an imminent threat.
Criminal Thresholds & Expungement
Expungement available for all criminal records (2015 expansion). Courts weigh public safety, rehabilitation, and consequences of the record.
Immigration Consequences
Minneapolis-St. Paul has a large Somali and growing Arab American community. Minneapolis has sanctuary city policies limiting ICE cooperation. Minnesota courts are increasingly familiar with cultural and immigration considerations in criminal cases.
For Arab and Muslim community members with immigration concerns, it is critical to have an attorney who understands both criminal defense strategy and immigration consequences. A conviction that seems minor can lead to deportation, denial of naturalization, or loss of visa status.
