People often mistake Deferred Adjudication as a non conviction. Actually you just got a special treatment of probabtion. You were convicted probably because you plead guilty.

In Texas, if you violate the terms of your probation (the Def. Adj) you get no credit for "time served". So if your probation is revoked on the last day of your two year probation, you will serve the full two years. Great incentive don't you think?

This conviction will always be on your record.
