Alonzo F. Crenshaw
1360 University Avenue West, #178
Saint Paul, MN 55104
RE: Application for a Saint Paul Taxicab Driver's License
Dear Mr. Crenshaw:
The Office of License, Inspection and Environmental Protection has recommended denial
of the taacicab driver's license application you submitted and you were previously informed of
that recommendation by letter dated June 24, 2003. The Office of LIEP has added an additional
basis for the recommendation, which is as follows:
By letter dated July 11, 2003 you were noti£ed that your check
in the amount of $95.00 was returned for insufficient funds.
Additionally, your earlier check for $66.00, submitted with a
previous application, was also returned for non-sufficient
funds. Accordingly, the Office of LIEP will recommend denial
of your current application until the two checks and resulting
fees_have been paid in full. The total amount due is $191.00.
If you do not dispute the above facts, please send me a letter with a statement to that
effect. This matter, along with the earlier identified basis for denial stated in our June 24, 2003
letter, will then be scheduled for a hearing before the St. Paul City Council to determine what
penalty, if any, to impose. You will have an opportunity to appear and speak on your own behalf,
or to have someone appear there for you. As stated above, the recommendation of the license
office is for the denial of your current license application.
On the other hand, if you wish to dispute the above facts, or the facts identified in our
earlier leYter, I will schedule an evidentiary hearing before an Administrative Law Jud�e (ALJ).
If you wish to have such a hearing, please send me a letter stating that you are contesting the
facts. You will then be sent a"Notice of Hearing," so you will know when and where to appear,
and what the basis for the hearing will be.

MS. B��'b1SON: This is State of Minnesota versus
Alonzo Crenshaw, District Court 01045602, County
Attorney file number O1-5068. Mr. Crenshaw ie present
today with Robert Sorenson. I`m Bev Benson, counsel
for the State. Also Nancy ohmann is present from Court
Services. She has completed a pre-plea investigation.
It appears to be factually correct. we've met in
chambers and discusaed her recommendation. My
understanding is that the Court will be following her
recommendation with a minor charge. That's based on
some input from the St. Paul police officer.
At thie time, S would defer to Mr. Sorenson to
determine whether or not Mr. Crenahaw wants to plead
guilty to the charge.
MR. SORENSON: Judge, I do have one question
for you, which I neglected to ask you in chambers.
That is whether you'd be willing to give Mr. Crenshaw a
stay of imposition instead of a stay of execution. He
apparently had atays of imposition on two check cases
from 1990. Those are now both misdemeanors aoparently
at leaet in terms of the outside world and my request
is that you give him an incentive on this case.
THE COURT: I'm willing to do it ir. a
different fashion. There is a Minnesota Supreme Court
decision that says 2 have the riqht to chance a

sentence during the period of probation. I'm going to
sentence the de�endant to a stay of execution because
today that's what he deaerves. If he does reali.y well
in Twin Town and a11 that other stuif, sometime within
the next year, I`m willing to resentence him to a stay
of imposition. But you have to make some significant
changes in your life.
THE DEFENDANT: Okay.
THS COURT: So I'll explain how you go about
doing that, but today it would be a stay of execution,
but I am willing to commit that if he really made all
of the changes that we're expecting, it would be
reasonable at the time that he got put on
admini5trative probation to re-do it to a stay of
imposition.
MR. SORENSON: Thank you, Juflge. One other
thing has come up which I was dealing with Mr. Crenshaw
about when you came in the covrtroom. Which is as we
were in here waiting, Ms. Benson asked about the
possibilities of Mr. Crenshaw paying restitution on a
couple of �hecks which were not charged as part of this
alleged scheme of activity. I attempted �o get her to
agree to simply not to have those checks charged.
There other suspects named in the report_ She's
unwilling to do that and hae offered if he wants to pay

restitution, they won't charge, but we can't work out
some neaotiation on tnat and the whole matter is up in
the air.
THE COURT: How much are we Lalking about?
MR. SOREI�TSON: $564.00
MS. BENSON: And 14 cents.
MR_ SORENSON: You know, I don't thin}: Mr.
Crenshaw has much money available. I don't think he's
going to have much money available in the near future.
On the other hand, he doea not want the uncertainty of
facing another charge, whether it's charged by Mise
Benson or somebody else in the county attorney's office
in the normal course of business. So I'd ask the Court
to consider ordering that that not -- that there be no
additional charges here based on that check. It wasn't
charged initially in the complaint.
THE COURT: I can't do that. I can say, okay,
if you decide to pay che $514, Z'm willing to
contribute the mandatory minimum fine as my
contribution to reducing the total liability.
MR. SORENSON: I think he will take you up on
that offer.
23 THE DEFENDANT: I'll pay it, Your Honor.
2q THE COURT: $514.
25 MS. BENSON: Your Honor, it's $564.

THE COURT: Well, if the other people come up

favorable for you, and you would have the cnoice at the
trial of whether or not to testify. If you chose not
to testify and remain silent throughout the trial, that
could not be used as evidence against you. And during
the course of the trial, one of the things that we
could do would be to raise a defense of either durese
or self defense depending on how that all played out.
Do you understand you're giving up the right to do
that?
Yes, I do.
Is that what you want to do?
Yes,
Do you have any questions about that?
No.
Do you have any questions about the other trial rights
you're giving up?
No.
Is that your signature at the bottom of each page of
ttze Petition?
Yes.
Does that indicate that you understand the rights
you're giving up and what you are doing today?
Yes.
I put the plea negotiation on paragraph 20-A and we
went through that?
