I was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia in texas.
i got a deal with the district attorney the other day:
$100 fine plead guilty or
$200 no contest: this is for deferred adjudication, which includes a drug and alcohol class and 12 hrs of community service.
what is the difference on your record between the two? Is deferred a conviction or not? if it isn't do i still have to answer yes on a job application that i've been convicted?
thanks.
