The Pretrial Intervention Program (PTI) is a state legislated diversion program which allows the defendant to be diverted from court. The program provides rehabilitative services with the goal of deterring the defendant from committing future crimes. Requirements may include but are not limited to community service work, program fees, random drug screens, individual or group counseling and restitution to the victim, if applicable.

A person, charged as an adult may only participate in the program once in a lifetime. Out of county or state supervision is available under limited circumstances. Upon successful completion of the program, the charge will be dismissed and criminal prosecution is avoided. The participant may apply for an expungement of the charge(s).

 

Who Can Apply?
  • The applicant is at least 18 years of age.
  • Justice will be served by placing the offender in an intervention program.
  • The offender has no significant prior criminal history and has no prior participation in PTI.
  • The offender is likely to respond quickly to rehabilitative treatment.
  • The offender is unlikely to be involved in further criminal activity and poses no threat to the community.
