Comments on What Is A Conditional Dismissal Based On The Completion Of An Anger Management Course?
It means, if the conditions are met (program complete, no other offenses, whatever), then the case will eventually be dismissed. By being dismissed, there neither an acquittal nor any finding of guilt.
A conditional dismissal means the charge will be dismissed if certain conditions are met for a protracted period of time. Basically, if you complete all your sessions, meet all the other obligations set by the court including paying fines, fees, and any supervision costs, and do not reoffend for a certain period of time, the charge will be dismissed and will not appear on your record.
Most likely if you successfully complete Anger Management and do not get in anymore trouble you can have the record expunged but most place will want at least 4 years of clean history after the completion of anger management.
