State of Minnesota, Respondent, vs. Kyaw Be Bee, Appellant

Summary

The court held that the statutory definition of “public place” unambiguously includes the interior of a motor vehicle traveling on a public roadway. Reading the statute as a whole, the court relied on the vehicle-transport exception and the statutory exclusions, concluding that the district court erred in dismissing the complaint for lack of probable cause. The court affirmed the court of appeals.
