Pretrial Intervention Program (PTI) to dismiss NJ criminal charges for First time offenders in Superior Court
Edited by Kenneth Vercammen from Judiciary Information Sheet
If you have no prior criminal charges I recommended that my clients apply for PTI Pre Trial Intervention. Please read the details at https://www.njlaws.com/pretrial_intervention_programpti.html
The PTI application form is available for downloading on the Judiciary's website at
https://www.njcourts.gov/forms/12305_pti_app.pdf
• Copies can also be obtained in the Criminal Division management office at the county courthouses.

When you go to be interviewed bring the Complaint, pay stubs, photo ID, and your entire file in connection with your matter. You must pay the $75.00 application fee.
In support of your application for PTI the prosecutor and court will later review any letters or documents that are submitted to the Court on your behalf. Please type up and deliver to my office a list of 15 reasons why the prosecutor should approve PTI within 10 days.
Upon receipt of the Pretrial Intervention Program Application , the Criminal Division staff will forward the application and statement to the prosecutor's office.
The prosecutor's office must then provide a written response indicating their decision eithertoconsentortorefusetoconsenttofurtherconsidertheapplication. PursuanttoR.3:28- 3(b)(2), that written response must be provided to the defendant, defendant's attorney, and the CriminalDivisionwithin14daysafterreceiptoftheapplication. It should be noted that applications that contain a "yes" response to the question that asks whether the prosecutor has provided such consent does not remove the need for the prosecutor to provide a written response. Criminal Division staff will not consider the merits of the application until receipt of the prosecutor's written consent to further’ consider the application. See R. 3:28-3(b)(2).
I recommend very strongly that clients obtain letters from relatives or other individuals who know you who would be willing to write to the Court to indicate that there should not be incarceration. These letters should set forth favorable aspects regarding your life and your future. They should point out some of the good traits that you possess. They should also feel free to put any other reasons why the prosecutor should approve PTI. The letter should include your date of birth and complaint or indictment number. These letters are for your benefit and these instructions should be followed. These letters of reference should go to the Criminal Division, which interviewed you for PTI.
Please bring an extra copy of all letters of reference, pay stubs and any other documents for the court just in case the court has lost the copies.

What is the Pretrial Intervention Program (PTI)?
The Pretrial Intervention Program (PTI) provides defendants, generally first-time offenders, with opportunities for alternatives to the traditional criminal justice process of ordinary prosecution. PTI seeks to render early rehabilitative services, when such services can reasonably be expected to deter future criminal behavior. The PTI program is based on a rehabilitative model that recognizes that there may be an apparent causal connection between the offense charged and the rehabilitative needs of a defendant. Further, the rehabilitative model emphasizes that social, cultural, and economic conditions often result in a defendant’s decision to commit crime. Simply stated, PTI strives to solve personal problems which tend to result from the conditions that appear to cause crime, and ultimately, to deter future criminal behavior by a defendant.
If charged with an offense that there is a presumption of jail, the applicant a Statement of Compelling Reasons must be submitted for defendants who have:
(1) a current charge that has a presumption of incarceration or a mandatory minimum period of parole ineligibility (see section II "Current Charges"), or
(2) a prior indictable/felony conviction (see section Ill "Prior Criminal Record") pursuant to R. 3:28-3(b)(1 ). |
