What Is Pretrial Diversion?
If you are a first-time offender or have a limited criminal history, you may be eligible for deferred prosecution, sometimes referred to as a pretrial diversion program. As part of the program, you must remain law abiding for a period of time and follow specific orders of the court. If you do so successfully, you may avoid a criminal conviction.
The state of Florida has diversion programs for certain drug offenses and other nonviolent felonies. Individual counties offer diversion programs for misdemeanor offenses. If you have been charged with a drug crime, you may also be available to participate in drug court. Read about the drug court to learn more.
