Conditional Discharge PDF Print E-mail
This is like an Absolute Discharge because the court does not wish to punish an offender further. They must not offend again inside a period of time that the court decides of up to three years. If the offender comes back to court inside that time, they can be punished for both the first and the second crimes. A conditional discharge still goes on an individual’s criminal record.
