I received court supervision in Illinois for misdemeanor theft. After successful completion of supervision, is it still considered a plea of guilty? How should I answer this question on applications: Have you ever been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a criminal offense, excluding minor traffic violations?
I was told that it is not a conviction, but what about the "or pleaded guilty to" part? Thanks in advance Answers (1)

These definitions require a specific interpretation of the law in IL under which the disposition occurred. As such, this requires an IL lawyer to review the disposition record, review the applicable law and render a legal opinion. If you do not have the disposition sheet, get it from the Court where the disposition was entered, and then consult directly with an experienced IL criminal defense lawyer before you enter your answer on the aplication form. Good luck.
