DUI and diversion agreements
my son is 21 in the marine corp and
got his first DUI. He thinks his best
option may be to plead no contest
and ask for a diversion agreement.
His worst consequence is that if
convicted, he cannot receive a
promotion in the USMC for a year
plus he was demoted for having
received the DUI. If he is able to get
the diversion and he completes the
requirements will the conviction be
removed? What is the best way to
learn about representing yourself in
court? He can't afford an attorney
and goes to court Sept. 4. Thank
you.
