A deferred sentencing agreement is a diversion option offered by the US Attorneys Office in the District of Columbia. The agreement requires you to admit guilty and then six months later withdraw that guilty plea if conditions are met. Feel free to watch our video deferred sentencing agreements. If you want to see actual agreement click here.
“I have read, or have had read to me, this Deferred Sentencing Agreement and have
discussed it with my attorney. I fully understand this agreement and agree to it without reservation. I do this voluntarily and of my own free will. No threats have been made to me. I am not under the influence of anything that could interfere with my ability to understand this agreement fully. I admit criminal responsibility in this case. I understand that the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution gives me the right to a speedy trial. I request a delay in the trial and agree to waive my speedy trial rights in this case for the duration of this agreement. No promises, agreements, understandings, or conditions have been made except those set forth in this agreement. I am satisfied with the legal services provided by my attorney in connection with this agreement and matters related to it.”
A deferred sentencing agreement is one of the more stringent diversion agreement because if you fail to complete one of the requirements outlined in the agreement you will not be allowed to withdraw your plea. You would have already plead guilty and the next step will be sentencing by the Judge. If you have any questions please give us a call to discuss.
