What Alternatives Do I Have to Traditional Penalties?

Any time a criminal defendant is facing misdemeanor charges and was or is currently a member of the U.S. military, they may be placed in a pretrial diversion program for up to two years.

The defendant may be assessed by a mental health authority in order to determine if a pretrial diversion program would be beneficial. This program can suspend the criminal trial for up to two years and upon successful completion, may even erase the defendant's arrest altogether. Military members benefit from pretrial diversion programs because it is a chance to overcome mental health problems and successfully move on without a tarnished criminal record.
