What is deferred adjudication?

I got a speeding ticket over the weekend for $221. What is deferred adjudication and how do I get it? Also if I get it do I still have to pay the fine?

still gotta pay. you take the class and they withhold judgement, if you dont get another in a year it goes away, off your record.

It's a fancy way to say "Suspended Sentence" or "Delayed Judgement".

Be mindfull of the conditions of this "verdict". If you are to attend a class, do so, and pay the fine.

Finally, find out how long you need to go before this "goes away". Some states can hang it over you for 5 years.
