Program Description

The Pre-Trial Diversion Program (PDP) is designed to keep an offender out of court and keep a conviction off his or her record. Common offenses eligible for the PDP include alcohol violations, check deception and driving while suspended.

Once an offender is approved into the program, he or she will sign an agreement to commit no further criminal offenses within one year, to comply with all program terms and to pay various fees. Once all terms of the program have been successfully completed, an offender's charge will be dismissed.
