not true excon goto
Deferred Adjudication
deferred adjudication is considered a conviction by most states out side of texas and in federal court, and by employers. its a crock of s**t. In texas they now ask on a job application "have you ever been convicted of OR taken deferred adjucation for any felony" to get around the "loophole" of it not being a "conviction". texas legislature has done everything in its power to make sure that not being convicted ends up as being seen as a conviction. THANK YOU REPUBLICANS
and the greatest part of all. since it wasnt a conviction, you cant ever get it expunged (maybe thats what you meant excon) but you can get an order of non disclosure if its a non violent felony or a misdemenor
