Re: Revocation of Deferred Prosecution for DUI
If you foolishly violate your probation for a deferred prosecution, you can expect to be charged with the probation violation, have an arrest warrant issued, and (if we're talking about a deferred sentence) be convicted and sentenced of the previously deferred criminal charge. A deferred prosecution would mean that no plea was entered - if that is what you mean to be talking about, your violation will result in the resumption of the criminal case.
I'm not going to speculate about when and where law enforcement might realize that you are a fugitive and take you into custody.
