(a)(2), the court, without entering a judgment of guilt in a criminal proceeding or a determination in a juvenile delinquency proceeding that the juvenile has committed the offense and with the consent of the accused, may defer further proceedings and place the individual on probation. The terms and conditions of that probation include, but are not limited to, the sanctions set forth in Subsection
(a)(3), payment of the costs, including minimum state cost as provided for in Section 18m of Chapter XIIA of the Probate Code of 1939, 1939 PA 288, MCL 712A.18m, and Section 1j of Chapter IX of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1927 PA 175, MCL 769.1j, and the costs of probation as prescribed in Section 3 of Chapter XI of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1927 PA 175, MCL 771.3.

If an individual fulfills the terms and conditions of probation, the court shall discharge the individual and dismiss the proceedings. A discharge and dismissal under this section is without adjudication of guilt or without a determination in a juvenile delinquency proceeding that the individual has committed the offense and is not a conviction or juvenile adjudication for purposes of disqualifications or disabilities imposed by law on conviction of a crime. An individual may obtain only one discharge and dismissal under this subsection. The court shall maintain a nonpublic record of the matter while proceedings are deferred and the individual is on probation and if there is a discharge and dismissal under this subsection. The Secretary of State shall retain a nonpublic record of a plea and of the discharge and dismissal under this subsection. These records shall be furnished to any of the following:

the Department of Corrections, the prosecutor, or the law enforcement
agency, or an applicant for employment with the Department of Corrections,
the prosecutor, or the law enforcement agency.

or the law enforcement agency only to determine whether an employee
has violated his or her conditions of employment or whether an applicant
meets criteria for employment.
(d) A misdemeanor violation of Subsection
(a) successfully deferred, discharged, and dismissed under Subsection
(c) is considered a prior judgment for the purposes of Subsection
(a)(3).
(e) A court may order an individual found responsible for or convicted of violating Subsection
(a) to undergo screening and assessment by a person or agency as designated by the department-designated community mental health entity as defined in Section 100a of the Mental Health Code, 1974 PA 258, MCL 330.1100a, to determine whether the individual is likely to benefit from rehabilitative services, including alcohol or drug education and alcohol or drug treatment programs. A court may order an individual subject to a misdemeanor conviction or juvenile adjudication of, or placed on probation regarding, a violation of Subsection
(a) to submit to
a random or regular preliminary chemical breath analysis. The parent, guardian, or custodian of a minor who is less than 18 years of age and not emancipated under 1968 PA 293, MCL 722.1 to 722.6, may request a random or regular preliminary chemical breath analysis as part of the probation.
(f) A law enforcement officer, on determining that an individual who is less than 18 years of age and not emancipated under 1968 PA 293, MCL 722.1 to 722.6, allegedly consumed, possessed, or purchased alcoholic liquor, attempted to consume, possess, or purchase alcoholic liquor, or had any bodily alcohol content in violation of Subsection

(a), his or her parents or legal guardian shall be notified immediately as provided in this subsection.

liquor during regular working hours and in the course of his or her
employment if employed by a person licensed by the Michigan Liquor
