Re: Court Hearing

It is not possible to simultaneously be a Stet and a conviction. But a Stet means that the case is put aside and unless the Defendant or the State bring it back up to the trial docket after one year (for any reason), there must be a court order to bring it back to the trial docket. It is like an indefinite postponement. It can be expunged after 3 years.
