What happens to a minor’s alcohol-related offense after completing community service under deferred disposition?

When a minor is involved in an alcohol-related offense and undergoes community service as part of a deferred disposition, the expected outcome is that the complaint is dismissed upon successful completion of the community service. This process is designed as a rehabilitative measure rather than a punitive one. When the minor fulfills the conditions set by the court, such as completing community service or possibly other requirements, the original complaint is effectively resolved without resulting in a conviction. This is meant to give minors a chance to learn from their mistakes and avoid lasting legal consequences that could arise from a formal conviction.

It’s important to note that while the dismissal of the complaint is a common outcome in these situations, other outcomes mentioned in different options do not typically occur under standard legal procedures related to deferred disposition. This approach reflects a focus on rehabilitation and being considerate of the minor's future rather than imposing further penalties or resetting terms for another trial.
