This would be considered a violation of most diversionary programs, meaning the original charge would be refiled and you would be in a worse position than you were before. I would try calling your old lawyer and send him a letter by certified mail. If that won't work, I would get another lawyer in the same jurisdiction to look into the matter for you.
