After conviction and sentence, the Judge may suspend sentence, in accordance with the provisions of and subject to the conditions and procedures imposed by 11 O.S. §§ 27-123 and 27-124, or upon a verdict or plea of guilty, but before a judgment of guilt, the Judge may, without entering judgment and with the consent of the defendant, defer further proceeding, and place the defendant on probation term, which shall not exceed six months. The defendant shall be discharged without a judgment of guilt and the verdict or plea of guilty shall be expunged and the charge dismissed with prejudice to further action. The dismissal can be with or without cost being charged to the defendant. Upon a violation of any Court imposed condition of probation, the Court may enter a judgment of guilt and proceed to impose sentence.
