Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota

Re: traveling if charged with a felony

If you are still on probation or parole, check with your probation or parole officer. Many times, they will o.k. it upon request if there is a good reason and they have no real concerns. If you are no longer on probation or parole, I am not aware of any Minnesota or Untied states legal restrictions on overseas travel. You may have trouble with other countries granting you entry or travel visas, however, depending upon the country and the type of past conviction.

Re: traveling if charged with a felony

I'm presuming you are on probation or on supervised release. Your probation officer is the person to ask if that's the case. If your overseas travel is not approved due to some restriction of your sentence, you may want to explore having that modified by the court that imposed your sentence.

If your question isn't resolved by talking with your P.O. (assuming you're on probation or supervised release), speak with a lawyer.
