Please answer only if you have knowledge of the CANADIAN youth justice system?
If you are American and don’t know about the Canadian laws for youths, just exit this window right now I don’t have time for that. I’m sick of people who aren’t credible sources answering my questions with false information.
Anyways, I was charged last year with B&E and the crown offered me diversion (there were special circumstances) and I completed it successfully. I went to court, presented that information and the judge said, ‘the case against (my name here) is dismissed’… what does this mean exactly? Haha, thanks!
Diversion means that if you comply with the court demands, the charges will be withdrawn and you will not bear a criminal record. It will be eliminated from your record. I think they only do this in Ontario though, and usually for a first offence.
