Introductory Statement
The following forms are limited in number.  No attempt is made to furnish a complete manual of forms.  For all complaints charging a misdemeanor offense the prosecuting attorney, judge, judicial officer or clerk of court authorized to issue process shall use the appropriate form as set forth in the following criminal forms or a form substantially in compliance with these forms.  The other forms provided herein are not mandatory, but shall be accepted by the court if offered by any party or counsel for their designated purpose.

Comment
The Final Report of the Minnesota Supreme Court Task Force on Racial Bias in the Judicial System (1993) recommends that all judicial forms and documents be drafted in easily translatable English, and be translated by approved legal translators into such additional languages as the State Court Administrator approves.  It is recommended that any criminal forms that are translated consist of both English and the additional language.
