Misdemeanor Diversion Request (PC1001.95) Advisal And Waiver Of Rights {CR.050}

CR.050 - MISDEMEANOR DIVERSION REQUEST (PC § 1001.95) ADVISAL AND WAIVER OF RIGHTS. This form is used in the Superior Court of California, County of Butte, by defendants who are requesting to participate in a misdemeanor diversion program under California Penal Code section 1001.95. The form serves to inform the defendant of their rights and responsibilities associated with entering the diversion program. It outlines that the diversion period will not exceed two years and may include conditions such as restitution to victims, protective or stay-away orders, and firearm prohibitions. By completing this form, the defendant waives their right to a speedy trial and acknowledges that failure to comply with the court-imposed conditions or being arrested for a new offense during the diversion period may result in the reinstatement of criminal proceedings. It also explains that upon successful completion of the program, the charges will be dismissed and the arrest will generally be treated as if it never occurred, with certain exceptions, such as when applying to become a peace officer. The form must be signed under penalty of perjury to confirm that the defendant understands and agrees to all terms and advisals. www.FormsWorkflow.com
