Deferred Disposition

Deferred Disposition (probation) is a suspended sentence and an option to have your violation dismissed.   Upon your plea of of guilty or no contest , the Judge will defer any finding of guilt, assess the applicable fees and order you to comply with certain conditions.  If deferred disposition is successfully completed, the case will be dismissed and not reported to your driving record.

Defendants who are younger than 25 years of age must also complete a driving safety course as condition of probation.
