Are you facing criminal charges?
Have you been offered Deferred Adjudication probation?
If you are considering accepting Deferred Adjudication please consider the
following.

1. You may be told that your record will be clear if you successfully
complete deferred adjudication.  This is a lie.  Deferred Adjudication is
treated as a conviction for law enforcement purposes.

2. Your deferred adjudication will be public record and displayed on the
Department of Public Safety web site, and at the County Courthouse.  They
will then sell your personal information to Internet background search
companies.  This deferred adjudication information will be available to
anyone and everyone.

3. You can and will be denied employment, housing, insurance, loans, and in
some cases access to your children and their activities because of this
deferred adjudication.  It is treated and looked upon as a conviction!  Do
not believe otherwise!

4. Ask your attorney if you will be eligible for an order of non-disclosure
when your probation is complete.  This allows you to �hide� your deferred
adjudication.  In some cases you are not allowed an order of non-disclosure
and this offense will follow you the rest of your life.  For felonies you
must wait 5 years from the day your probation ends.  Misdemeanors vary from
immediate to 2 years.
Ask your attorney or the judge.  Do not sign until you know all the facts!
