SCMLR 5.6
                        DEFERRAL OF TRAFFIC INFRACTION


The defendant may enter a deferral of traffic infraction for up to one year
pursuant to RCW 46.63.070(5).

  (A)  The defendant may enter a deferral of traffic infraction without court
       hearing upon appearing at the clerk's office, paying the administrative costs
       and signing the agreement to abide by the deferral conditions (no new
       moving/non-moving violations for six months).  Alternatively, the Court may
       grant deferral at a scheduled mitigation or contested hearing, setting costs
       and conditions.

  (B)  The court will monitor the defendant's compliance for the stated period of
       time.  If the defendant successfully completes the conditions, the charge(s)
       will be dismissed.

  (C)  The court may extend the jurisdiction up to a year if the defendant
       obtains a new pending violation and no disposition is shown.  If the defendant
       obtains a new committed violation during the period of jurisdiction or fails to
       pay the administrative costs, the deferral will be revoked and the charge(s)
       found committed.
