Many times when a person is a first time offender for a third degree charge or lower, the court will allow the person to avoid jail time and enter the Pre-Trial Intervention Program. If and when this program is completed successfully, the charges against the person will be dropped leaving them without a criminal record. There are still steps that you have to take however, since there will still be a record of your arrest that may affect your future educational and employment opportunities.

Expungements After Completing PTI or Conditional Discharge Program in New Jersey
The law for expungements after completing the PTI or conditional discharge program is explained under N.J.S.A. 2C:52-6. It explains:
b. Any person who has had charges dismissed against him pursuant to P.L.1970, c. 226, § 27 (C. 24:21-27) [FN1] or pursuant to a program of supervisory treatment, shall be barred from the relief provided in this section until 6 months after the entry of the order of dismissal.
As explained above, even after the charges against you are dismissed, there is still a record of the arrest that will show up on background checks if you are seeking a new job. After you have completed the program, you must wait another 6 months before you can apply to have the arrest expunged.
