KELLY, Justice.

This is a prosecutorial appeal under Rule 28, Rules of Criminal Procedure. Pursuant to Rule 28.08, the state appealed to the district court from an order of the municipal court dismissing a misdemeanor prosecution against defendant. The district court dismissed the state’s appeal on the grounds that Rule 28 violates both art. 6, § 3, of the Minnesota Constitution, and Minn.St. 480.059, subd. 1. We granted the state’s petition pursuant to Rule 29.03 for permission to appeal the district court’s order. We reverse and remand.
