Standard Conditions of Diversion

Juveniles participating in the Diversion program are required to abide by a number of conditions, some of which are standard for any juvenile in the program, others of which are specific to the circumstances underlying their offense.  Any violation of these conditions can result in additional consequences, up to and including the juvenile being failed from the program and their case being referred back to the Prosecuting Attorney for possible prosecution and formal Court action.

The following is a list of standard conditions that any minor participating in the Diversion program is required to follow;
