I believe the difference is that deferred adjudication is AFTER a nolo contendere (no contest) or guilty finding is passed. The agreement is to dismiss it once a period is over, but you were still found guilty.
In pretrial diversion, you have not plead nolo contendere or been found guilty, so it is basically a dismissal with no conviction, so you are clear.

You need to contact the DOJ and ask how to get a copy of the disposition of the case. If it was truly dismissed, then you should be clear to go.Nov. 2011: After I successfully completed the pretrial diversion program, DOJ filed a motion to dismiss.
