no front plate?

the other day a stupid cop pull my car over and said my exhaust was too loud. but when he gave my girlfriend the ticket.. he was like.."i'll give you a warning for your exhaust but here is a ticket for having no front plate. " i didn't realize that on the ticket he wrote no front plate.. but i have my front plate. it's inside my car on the passenger side. and i think thats legal. i read somewhere that if your front plate fall off.. to put it inside on the passenger side. by the way i live in minnesota.
i me and my girl will go to court for that shit.. i'm not going to pay a fine because some racist cop.. i'm still looking around to make sure that its legal to put it onthe passenger side..
can yall help??

I know it's illegal in NY State to have your plate inside in the windshield. But a lot of people put them in there anyways (whether it fell off or they have an aftermarket bumper and don't want a plate on it); but it's still illegal. But I have absolutely no clue whether it's legal in your state or not. But another thing I was thinking is that if he gave you a warning for the muffler but got you on the plate; maybe the no plate thing is a less expensive fine than the muffler; I've known the PO9 to cut deals like that with people so they don't look like total asses (yet they still do go figure). But there has to be a way to find out if you go jipped. Try pleading non-guilty; my friends gotten at least 20 tickets and always pleads not guilty and get off with only paying a service charge. Hope this info helps you.
