The United States Attorney may release you from supervision at any time. The United States Attorney may, at any time within the period of your supervision, initiate prosecution for this offense should you violate the conditions of this supervision and will furnish you with notice specifying the conditions of your program, which you have violated.
If, upon completion of your period of supervision, a pretrial diversion report is received to the effect that you complied with all the rules, regulations and conditions mentioned below, no prosecution for the offenses set out on page one of this Agreement will be instituted in this District, and any indictment or information will be discharged.
Neither this agreement nor any other document filed with the United States Attorney as a result of your participation in the pretrial diversion program will be used against you except for impeachment purposes, in connection with any prosecution for the above-described offense.
I assert and certify that I am aware of the fact that the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States provides that in all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial and the right to an attorney. I am also aware that Rule 48(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure provides that the Court may dismiss an indictment, information, or complaint for unnecessary delay in presenting a charge to the Grand Jury, filing an information or in bringing a defendant to trial. I hereby request that the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia defer any prosecution of me for violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 922(a)(6) and Title 18, United States Code, Section 922(a)(1)(A), for the period of 12 months, and to induce him to defer such prosecution, I agree and consent that any delay from the date of this Agreement to the date of the initiation of prosecution, as provided for in the terms expressed herein, shall be deemed to be a necessary delay at my request and I waive any defense to such prosecution on the ground that such delay operated to deny my rights under Rule 48(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States to a speedy trial or to bar the prosecution by reason of the running of the statute of limitations for a period of 12 months which is the period of this Agreement.
I hereby state that the above has been read and explained to me. I understand the conditions of my pretrial diversion and agree that I will comply with them.
