I have a client charged with two felonies and a misdemeanor but no significant previous offenses. The prosecution is offering a deferred imposition of a sentence which would allow my client to get it off his record within a few years.

The problem i have is that the client will have to enter a guilty plea which could affect (revoke) his professional license. I am trying to get a deferred prosecution with the same terms to alleviate this problem. However, the prosecution is often reluctant to do this because the case is often stale if and when the time comes to revoke the deferral. Has anyone ever used a deferred plea agreement that whereby the Defendant would agree to plead guilty if and when the prosecution decides to revoke the denial?
