Adjudication withheld refers to a legal decision where the court does not enter a formal judgment of guilt against a defendant, typically in criminal cases. Instead, the court may impose probation or other conditions, allowing the individual to avoid a conviction on their record if they successfully comply with those terms. This option is often available for first-time offenders or less serious crimes, providing an opportunity for rehabilitation without the stigma of a conviction.
The final judgment is called "adjudication."

No, charges dismissed and adjudication do not mean the same thing. When charges are dismissed, it means that the court has decided not to proceed with the case, often due to lack of evidence or other reasons. Adjudication, on the other hand, refers to the legal process of resolving a dispute or deciding a case, which can result in a verdict or judgment. Therefore, a dismissal does not involve a formal adjudication of the charges.
