Deferred prosecution is a program in which, if you complete certain conditions similar to probation, the charges are dismissed. It sounds like that's when you did. Your next step would be to seal your record. Sealing will completely remove any reference to the deferred prosecution or the arrest. Call me or e-mail me if you need assistance with that.
