Alexis Rodriguez granted deferred adjudication with treatment and community-service conditions
Summary
The court accepted a plea for deferred adjudication in a third-degree possession case for Alexis Rodriguez, imposing a four-year deferred term, TAP evaluation, drug testing, 100 hours of community-service restitution and other conditions described on the record.
Alexis Rodriguez appeared before Judge Stephanie Boyd in the 187th District Court and the court deferred a finding of guilt after Rodriguez entered a plea to possession of a controlled substance, the judge said.
Under the plea agreement the state recommended deferred adjudication for four years, $60 in restitution to the Bexar County laboratory, a TAP evaluation with follow-through on recommendations, 100 hours of community-service restitution, drug education and random drug testing. The judge accepted the stipulation of evidence and deferred the finding of guilt.
Why it matters: Deferred adjudication allows defendants to avoid a conviction if they complete court-ordered conditions; it carries risks — if revoked, the court may impose a full sentence up to statutory limits. The judge admonished Rodriguez on the consequences of failing to comply and instructed on reporting and probation conditions designed to reduce risk to children and the public.
Details on the record: The court confirmed Rodriguez waived a grand jury indictment under Article 1.051 and 26.03 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and reviewed statutory admonishments for a third-degree felony (possession of 1–4 grams). The state proffered State’s Exhibit 1 and attachments; the court accepted the stipulation into evidence and deferred finding of guilt under the application for deferred adjudication.
Conditions and supervision: The court ordered regular random UAs, reporting by Zoom or in person, proof of employment within 30 days, a TAP evaluation, drug education and 100 hours of community-service restitution (deemed satisfied by higher education or trade certification), plus parenting classes. The judge also agreed to recall a warrant and emphasized communication with probation as key to success.
Court chronology: Counsel confirmed discovery and advised the court Rodriguez had already completed the 60 support meetings included in the file. The judge accepted the plea and outlined reporting and treatment requirements in open court.
