The only way to secure Pretrial Intervention, which is also referred to as PTI, is by securing a Graves Act Waiver. The program has no import unless the prosecutor files a waiver application that is approved by the court. If this occurs, the matter can proceed with resolution via PTI.
A common scenario for a Graves Act Waiver is someone who is an out-of-state resident who has a legally issued gun from his home state that he/she erroneously possess without a NJ carry permit. The New Jersey Attorney General has issued a directive for issuance of a waiver in this setting.
Our Monmouth county gun lawyers have decades of experience helping clients secure admission into the Pretrial Intervention Program and in securing Graves Act waivers.
