Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to public safety; requiring permit to carry holders to provide notification of a change of legal name; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 624.714, subdivision 7a.

AI Summary

This bill modifies Minnesota's existing law regarding permit to carry holders by adding a requirement that individuals must notify their local sheriff within 30 days of changing their legal name, similar to the existing requirement for changing permanent addresses. The bill mandates that failure to provide such notification is considered a petty misdemeanor, with a maximum fine of $25 for a first offense. Additionally, the bill allows permit holders to obtain a replacement permit card for a $10 fee when their legal name changes, using a standardized application. The legislation aims to ensure that permit to carry records remain current and accurately reflect the holder's legal identity. The change is relatively minor but helps maintain accurate documentation for individuals who hold concealed carry permits in Minnesota, specifically updating the notification requirements to include legal name changes alongside address changes.
