1.23 		Subdivision 1.Mandatory prison sentence. (a) The court shall sentence a person who 
1.24 	is convicted of a violation of section 169A.20 (driving while impaired) under the 
1.25 	circumstances described in section 169A.24 (first-degree driving while impaired) to 
1.26 	imprisonment for not less than three years. In addition, the court may order the person to 
1.27 	pay a fine of not more than $14,000.
2.1 	(b) The court may stay execution of this mandatory sentence as provided in subdivision 
2.2 	2 (stay of mandatory sentence), but may not stay imposition or adjudication of the sentence 
2.3 	or impose a sentence that has a duration of less than three years.
2.4 	(c) An offender committed to the custody of the commissioner of corrections under this 
2.5 	subdivision is not eligible for release as provided in section 241.26, 244.065, 244.12, or 
2.6 	244.17, unless the offender has successfully completed a chemical dependency treatment 
2.7 	program while in prison treatment recommendations as determined by a comprehensive 
2.8 	substance use disorder assessment while incarcerated.
2.9 	(d) Notwithstanding the statutory maximum sentence provided in section 169A.24
2.10 	(first-degree driving while impaired), when the court commits a person to the custody of

2.12 	has been released from prison the commissioner shall place the person on conditional release 
2.13 	for five years. The commissioner shall impose any conditions of release that the commissioner

3.9 	crimes shall not be detained in institutions for adjudicated delinquents, nor shall delinquent

11.20 	in the county probation department are to be given full credit for future sick leave and 
11.21 	vacation accrual purposes;
11.22 	(5) all probation officers serving the juvenile courts on July 1, 1972, shall continue to 
11.23 	serve in the county or counties they are now serving.
11.24 	(b) The commissioner of management and budget shall place employees transferred to 
11.25 	state service under paragraph (a), clause (4), in the proper classifications in the classified 
11.26 	service. Each employee is appointed without examination at no loss in salary or accrued 
11.27 	vacation or sick leave benefits, but no additional accrual of vacation or sick leave benefits 
11.28 	may occur until the employee's total accrued vacation or sick leave benefits fall below the 
11.29 	maximum permitted by the state for the employee's position. An employee appointed under 
11.30 	paragraph (a), clause (4), shall serve a probationary period of six months. After exhausting 
11.31 	labor contract remedies, a noncertified employee may appeal for a hearing within ten days 
11.32 	to the commissioner of management and budget, who may uphold the decision, extend the 
11.33 	probation period, or certify the employee. The decision of the commissioner of management 
11.34 	and budget is final. The state shall negotiate with the exclusive representative for the 
11.35 	bargaining unit to which the employees are transferred regarding their seniority. For purposes 
12.1 	of computing seniority among those employees transferring from one county unit only, a 
12.2 	transferred employee retains the same seniority position as the employee had within that 
12.3 	county's probation office.

12.4 	Sec. 13. Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 244.19, subdivision 5, is amended to read:
12.5 		Subd. 5.Compensation. In counties of more than 200,000 population, a majority of the 
12.6 	judges of the district court may direct the payment of such salary to probation officers as 
12.7 	may be approved by the county board, and in addition thereto shall be reimbursed for all 
12.8 	necessary expenses incurred in the performance of their official duties. In all counties which 
12.9 	obtain probation services from the commissioner of corrections the commissioner shall, out 
12.10 	of appropriations provided therefor, pay probation officers the salary and all benefits fixed 
12.11 	by the state law or applicable bargaining unit and all necessary expenses, including secretarial 
12.12 	service, office equipment and supplies, postage, telephone and telegraph services, and travel 
12.13 	and subsistence. Each county receiving probation services from the commissioner of 
12.14 	corrections shall reimburse the department of corrections for the total cost and expenses of 
12.15 	such services as incurred by the commissioner of corrections. Total annual costs for each 
12.16 	county shall be that portion of the total costs and expenses for the services of one probation 
12.17 	officer represented by the ratio which the county's population bears to the total population 
12.18 	served by one officer. For the purposes of this section, the population of any county shall 
12.19 	be the most recent estimate made by the Department of Health. At least every six months 
12.20 	the commissioner of corrections shall bill for the total cost and expenses incurred by the 
12.21 	commissioner on behalf of each county which has received probation services. The 
12.22 	commissioner of corrections shall notify each county of the cost and expenses and the county 
12.23 	shall pay to the commissioner the amount due for reimbursement. All such reimbursements 
12.24 	shall be deposited in the general fund except as provided in subdivision 1, paragraph (a), 
12.25 	clause (4). Objections by a county to all allocation of such cost and expenses shall be 
12.26 	presented to and determined by the commissioner of corrections. Each county providing 
12.27 	probation services under this section is hereby authorized to use unexpended funds and to 
12.28 	levy additional taxes for this purpose.
12.29 	The county commissioners of any county of not more than 200,000 population shall, 
12.30 	when requested to do so by the juvenile judge, provide probation officers with suitable 
12.31 	offices, and may provide equipment, and secretarial help needed to render the required 
12.32 	services.

13.1 	Sec. 14. Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 260.515, is amended to read:
13.2 	260.515 INTERSTATE COMPACT FOR JUVENILES.
13.3 	The Interstate Compact for Juveniles is enacted into law and entered into with all other 
13.4 	states legally joining in it in substantially the following form:
13.5 	ARTICLE I
13.6 	PURPOSE
13.7 	The compacting states to this Interstate Compact recognize that each state is responsible 
13.8 	for the proper supervision or return of juveniles, delinquents, and status offenders who are 
13.9 	on probation or parole and who have absconded, escaped, or run away from supervision 
13.10 	and control and in so doing have endangered their own safety and the safety of others. The 
13.11 	compacting states also recognize that each state is responsible for the safe return of juveniles 
13.12 	who have run away from home and in doing so have left their state of residence. The 
13.13 	compacting states also recognize that Congress, by enacting the Crime Control Act, United 
13.14 	States Code, title 4, section 112 (1965), has authorized and encouraged compacts for 
13.15 	cooperative efforts and mutual assistance in the prevention of crime.
13.16 	It is the purpose of this compact, through means of joint and cooperative action among 
13.17 	the compacting states to:
13.18 	(A) ensure that the adjudicated juveniles and status offenders subject to this compact 
13.19 	are provided adequate supervision and services in the receiving state as ordered by the 
13.20 	adjudicating judge or parole authority in the sending state;
13.21 	(B) ensure that the public safety interests of the citizens, including the victims of juvenile 
13.22 	offenders, in both the sending and receiving states are adequately protected;
13.23 	(C) return juveniles who have run away, absconded, or escaped from supervision or 
13.24 	control or have been accused of an offense to the state requesting their return;
13.25 	(D) make contracts for the cooperative institutionalization in public facilities in member 
13.26 	states for delinquent youth needing special services;
13.27 	(E) provide for the effective tracking and supervision of juveniles;
13.28 	(F) equitably allocate the costs, benefits, and obligations of the compact states;
13.29 	(G) establish procedures to manage the movement between states of juvenile offenders 
13.30 	released to the community under the jurisdiction of courts, juvenile departments, or any 
13.31 	other criminal or juvenile justice agency which has jurisdiction over juvenile offenders;
14.1 	(H) insure immediate notice to jurisdictions where defined juvenile offenders are 
14.2 	authorized to travel or to relocate across state lines;
14.3 	(I) establish procedures to resolve pending charges (detainers) against juvenile offenders 
14.4 	prior to transfer or release to the community under the terms of this compact;
14.5 	(J) establish a system of uniform data collection on information pertaining to juveniles 
14.6 	subject to this compact that allows access by authorized juvenile justice and criminal justice 
14.7 	officials, and regular reporting of compact activities to heads of state; executive, judicial, 
14.8 	and legislative branches; and juvenile criminal justice administrators;
14.9 	(K) monitor compliance with rules governing interstate movement of juveniles and 
14.10 	initiate interventions to address and correct noncompliance;
14.11 	(L) coordinate training and education regarding the regulation of interstate movement 
14.12 	of juveniles for officials involved in such activity; and
14.13 	(M) coordinate the implementation and operation of the compact with the Interstate 
14.14 	Compact for the Placement of Children, the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender 
14.15 	Supervision, and other compacts affecting juveniles particularly in those cases where 
14.16 	concurrent or overlapping supervision issues arise.
14.17 	It is the policy of the compacting states that the activities conducted by the Interstate 
14.18 	Commission created herein are the information of public policies and therefore are public 
14.19 	business. Furthermore, the compacting states shall cooperate and observe their individual 
14.20 	and collective duties and responsibilities for the prompt return and acceptance of juveniles 
14.21 	subject to the provisions of this compact. The provisions of this compact shall be reasonably 
14.22 	and liberally construed to accomplish the purpose and policies of the compact.

16.27 	members. The Interstate Commission may provide in its bylaws for such additional ex-officio 
16.28 	(nonvoting) members, including members of other national organizations, in such numbers 
16.29 	as shall be determined by the commission.

18.7 	or entity;

18.15 	Commission shall keep minutes which shall fully and clearly describe all matters discussed 
18.16 	in any meeting and shall provide a full and accurate summary of any actions taken, and the 
18.17 	reasons therefore, including a description of each of the views expressed on any item and

18.19 	documents considered in connection with any action shall be identified in such minutes.
18.20 	K. The Interstate Commission shall collect standardized data concerning the interstate 
18.21 	movement of juveniles as directed through its rules which shall specify the data to be

22.21 	principles of the "Model State Administrative Procedures Act," 1981 Act, Uniform Laws 
22.22 	Annotated, Vol. 15, page 1 (2000), or such other administrative procedures act, as the 
22.23 	Interstate Commission deems appropriate consistent with due process requirements under 
22.24 	the United States Constitution as now or hereafter interpreted by the United States Supreme 
22.25 	Court. All rules and amendments shall become binding as of the date specified, as published 
22.26 	with the final version of the rule as approved by the commission.
22.27 	3. When promulgating a rule, the Interstate Commission shall, at a minimum:
22.28 	a. publish the proposed rule's entire text stating the reasons for that proposed rule;
22.29 	b. allow and invite any and all persons to submit written data, facts, opinions, and 
22.30 	arguments, which information shall be added to the record, and be made publicly available;
22.31 	c. provide an opportunity for an informal hearing if petitioned by ten or more persons; 
22.32 	and

23.8 	court shall hold the rule unlawful and set it aside. For purposes of this subsection, evidence 
23.9 	is substantial if it would be considered substantial evidence under the Model (State) 
23.10 	Administrative Procedures Act.

23.12 	may, by enactment of a statute or resolution in the same manner used to adopt the compact, 
23.13 	cause that such rule shall have no further force and effect in any compacting state.
23.14 	6. The existing rules governing the operation of the Interstate Compact on Juveniles

27.27 	defaulted in the performance of any of its obligations or responsibilities under this compact, 
27.28 	or the bylaws or duly promulgated rules, the Interstate Commission may impose any or all

28.6 	offending state is in default. Immediate notice of suspension shall be given by the Interstate 
28.7 	Commission to the governor, the chief justice, or the chief judicial officer of the state; the 
28.8 	majority and minority leaders of the defaulting state's legislature; and the state council. The 
28.9 	grounds for default include, but are not limited to, failure of a compacting state to perform

28.25 	of which extends beyond the effective date of termination.
28.26 	4. The Interstate Commission shall not bear any costs relating to the defaulting state 
28.27 	unless otherwise mutually agreed upon in writing between the Interstate Commission and 
28.28 	the defaulting state.

28.30 	reenactment of the compact by the defaulting state and the approval of the Interstate 
28.31 	Commission pursuant to the rules.

29.2 	to enforce compliance with the provisions of the compact, its duly promulgated rules and 
29.3 	bylaws, against any compacting state in default. In the event judicial enforcement is

29.7 	1. The compact dissolves effective upon the date of the withdrawal or default of the 
29.8 	compacting state, which reduces membership in the compact to one compacting state.
29.9 	2. Upon the dissolution of this compact, the compact becomes null and void and shall 
29.10 	be of no further force or effect, and the business and affairs of the Interstate Commission 
29.11 	shall be concluded and any surplus funds shall be distributed in accordance with the bylaws.

30.5 	on the legislature of any compacting state, the obligations, duties, powers, or jurisdiction 
30.6 	sought to be conferred by such provision upon the Interstate Commission shall be ineffective 
30.7 	and such obligations, duties, powers, or jurisdiction shall remain in the compacting state 
30.8 	and shall be exercised by the agency thereof to which such obligations, duties, powers, or 
30.9 	jurisdiction are delegated by law in effect at the time this compact becomes effective.
