A19-0786        State of Minnesota, Respondent, vs. Michael James Schwartz, Jr., Appellant.
                         Court of Appeals.
            The crime of driving, operating, or being in physical control of a motor vehicle with “any amount of a controlled substance listed in Schedule I or II” in the driver’s body, under Minn. Stat. § 169A.20, subd. 1(7) (2020), does not require the State to prove that the driver knew or had reason to know that the controlled substance was in their body.
            Affirmed.  Justice Natalie E. Hudson.


A20-0396        Kevin Terrance Hannon, Appellant, vs. State of Minnesota, Respondent.
                         Stearns County.
            The district court did not abuse its discretion when it denied appellant’s fourth petition for postconviction relief without a hearing because his sentence was lawful, his restitution claim is untimely under the restitution statute, his remaining claims are untimely under the postconviction statute, and no exception to the statute of limitations applies.
            Affirmed.  Justice Gordon L. Moore, III.
