    This document notifies a defendant who has been placed on probation that if they satisfactorily fulfill the conditions of their probation and their probation term expires, the court has discretion to use judicial clemency to terminate their probation. If the court does so, it can set aside the verdict, dismiss charges, and release the defendant from penalties related to their conviction, though the conviction could be considered if they later reoffend or apply for certain licenses. Certain offenses make a defendant ineligible for this process.

    NOTICE OF JUDICIAL CLEMENCY FOR DEFENDANTS PLACED ON COMMUNITY


    SUPERVISION (PROBATION)

    You are hereby notified that if the court determines that you have satisfactorily fulfilled
    the conditions of your community supervision (hereinafter “probation”), upon expiration of
    your probation, if certain requirements are met, you may be able to receive judicial clemency
    from the court.
    Under Article 42A.701, Code of Criminal Procedure, the Court may use its discretion to
    exercise judicial clemency in terminating your probation if:
    1. The court determines that you have satisfactorily fulfilled the conditions of your
    probation;
    2. The term of your probation has expired, including any amended or modified
    term of your probation;
    3. The court discharges you from probation; and
    4. The court sets aside the verdict in your case or permits you to withdraw your
    plea.
    If the above requirements are met, the Court is authorized to dismiss the accusation,
    complaint, information, or indictment against you and to release you from all penalties and
    disabilities resulting from your conviction or plea. However, if the court releases you from the
    consequences of your conviction or plea, if you are subsequently convicted of another offense,
    your conviction or plea will be made known to the judge, and if you are an applicant for or
    holder of a license issued by the Department of Family and Protective Services (hereinafter
    “Department”), the Department may consider that you previously received probation as a
    factor in issuing, renewing, denying, or revoking a license.
