- It’s the State Attorney who makes the referral.

The DUI Diversion Program is a great option for people looking to preserve their records. If you don’t do diversion and end up entering a plea to a DUI you are required to have an adjudication of guilt. Adjudication means that you will forever have a DUI on your record, and you cannot seal or expunge the DUI.
