ACD or Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal: It is effectively a pre-adjudication disposition where the defendant promises to stay out of trouble for a period of time - usually six months to one year and the court agrees that if the defendant is successful, the case will be dismissed.



As you can see its very similar to my description of Diversion I gave you in your other thread.
 
A basic definition of a "Prayer for Judgement" is a plea that can be entered in a courtroom and is neither an admission of guilt nor a plea of innocence. If the plea is accepted by the judge the charge against the accused is dismissed though the judge usually has conditions for the violation to not go on the person's record.

Stop stealing and follow conditions of probation.
