   a diversion from WHAT?   
   from a stronger sentence upon conviction.   
   Setencg happens after a pleas deal is accepted by the judge, and   
   sentencing is pronounced.   
   A diversion agreement is part of sentencing.   
      
   Many agreements and contracts are subject to other things happeneng    
   first. either by contract stipulation   
   or by causes of law.   
      
   one such example would be prenuptials.
