A defendant with a CDL offense is not eligible for deferred disposition.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only with court approval
• D. Not stated

Answer: (A)

Deferred disposition lets a defendant avoid a formal conviction by meeting court-set conditions, but for CDL offenses eligibility is typically barred. This reflects the higher safety stakes with commercial drivers and the stricter penalties or licensing consequences that come with CDL violations. Allowing deferral could delay or minimize the impact on driving privileges and public safety, so courts generally do not grant deferred disposition in CDL cases. Therefore, the statement is true. The other options imply some path to eligibility or no stated rule, which doesn’t align with the usual policy that CDL offenses are not eligible.
