You probably already understand the impact that having a conviction on your record, whether it is a misdemeanor or felony, can have on your future. You may have accepted deferred thinking it would be easy only to quickly overwhelmed to a point where you felt helpless and now you find yourself facing a possible final conviction and possibly going to jail for whatever amount of time the Judge see’s fit.
The first thing you need to understand is that although a motion to adjudicate has been filed the judge has not convicted you of the offense.

There are many instances where although the state can prove a violation occurred our client is not revoked.
