What does it mean when my Disposition reads withheld adjudication with special condition?
Adjudication withheld generally means that while the judge decided you were guilty, he didn't officially enter a conviction on your record. Instead, you were probably placed on probation, and if you complete your probation satisfactorily, you can probably petition to have that removed from your record. If you violate your probation, most likely the disposition will be changed to officially read that you were convicted.

What does Adjudication deferred mean?
It is often used in cases of probation when the final verdict (adjudication) in the case is withheld pending the completion of a court ordered requirement of the defendant. If the task (whatever it is) is successfully completed the judge MAY render a lesser or more lenient verdict than what was originally anticipated.
Does Adjudication Withheld for a misdemeanor mean you have to go to jail or have probhation?
Hi! No this does not mean you have to go to jail. You might depending on the charges, but for most misdemeanor charges probation will suffice. When it happened to me, I was on probation for 2 weeks, until I fulfilled my requirements given by the judge (a class for the crime I committed).
