Featured: Minnesota AG gives opinion on ICE arrests (external site)
SHERIFFS; DUTIES AND AUTHORITY; Minnesota law does not authorize sheriffs to enter agreements under section 287(g) of the federal Immigration and Nationality Act. Instead, a county may execute a 287(g) agreement if the agreement is approved by a resolution of the county board of commissioners; Minnesota law prohibits local law enforcement officers from detaining or holding persons based solely on ICE civil immigration detainers regardless of whether the law enforcement agency is operating under a valid 287(g) agreement. Key points: - Minnesota law does not authorize sheriffs to enter 287(g) agreements. Instead, a county may execute a 287(g) agreement if the agreement is approved by a resolution of the county board of commissioners. - Minnesota law prohibits local law enforcement officers from detaining or holding persons based solely on ICE civil immigration detainers regardless of whether the law enforcement agency is operating under a valid 287(g) agreement. - Even a valid 287(g) agreement does not permit officers to detain persons based solely on ICE immigration detainers or take any other actions violating Minnesota law. Officers or agencies who do so may expose themselves to liability. See Lundeen v. Renteria, 224 N.W.2d 132, 146 (Minn. 1974).
