No, it is not a conviction. The judge withholds any entry of judgment. It is on hold until probation or other certain conditions are satisfied. When that is done then it is dismissed.

How does Illinois view A SUSPENDED IMPOSITION OF SENTENCE?

In Illinois, a suspended imposition of sentence (SIS) is a form of sentencing where the court defers the imposition of a sentence, allowing the defendant to complete certain conditions, such as probation. If the defendant successfully fulfills these conditions, the charges may be dismissed, and no conviction is recorded. However, if the defendant fails to meet the requirements, the court may impose the original sentence. This mechanism is often used to provide first-time offenders with a chance for rehabilitation without the burden of a criminal record.

A suspended execution of sentence is when the judge actually renders a sentence to the defendant, but passes the execution of the sentence on defendant unless they commit another offense. The court will then have the right to impose the original sentence upon the defendant. A suspended imposition of sentence is when the judge does not enter a sentence on defendant and has the right to execute a sentence upon the defendant should they commit another offense.

When you are given a suspended imposition of sentence is the charge or conviction on you record?

Normally yes. A conviction is any instance when a guilty or no contest plea is entered, or when the Defendant is found guilty by a judge or jury. That is known as an adjudication of guilt, which can be withheld. meaning there would be no record of guilt. But there would be a record that a plea was entered and a sentence was handed by the Court, albeit suspended.Added: The above refers to the recorded actions of the court once the case reaches that stage of prosecution. Howeve, the record of your arrest, and for what charge, will remain.
