Location: Travis County, Texas
If somebody already completed felony pre trial diversion in Travis county what are the chances they will get offered deferred adjudication if they pick up another case?
Timeline wise – new case picked up shortly after their prior felony PTD was dismissed and expunged. Or is the prosecutor and DA most likely to say ef that, this punk didn’t learn their lesson the first time.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated, has anybody ever completed Felony PTD or Differed adjudication twice? My friend thinks their life is over, i told them to chill out and let their attorney try and work some magic.
Has anyone in Texas ever completed pre trial diversion or deferred adjudication twice?

Not a lawyer, but generally, repeating offenders aren’t looked upon favorably. Encourage your friend to stay clean, follow their attorney’s advice & remember: better to learn from the mistake now than to never learn at all.
