Re: Non-dlsclosure question
It depends on what the defendant pleads to. You can't non-disclose an injury to a child case. You also can't non-disclose an assault if it alleges family violence. However, if regular assault then can non-disclosed after 5 years from date of discharge and dismissal (i.e. when deferred is completed).
