To obtain a deferred prosecution agreement (DPA), a party typically must engage in negotiations with prosecutors to demonstrate cooperation and compliance with legal requirements. This often involves acknowledging wrongdoing, providing information about the misconduct, and implementing corrective measures to prevent future violations. The agreement is usually contingent upon the party meeting specific conditions, such as paying fines or restitution and adhering to a compliance program over a designated period. If the terms of the DPA are fulfilled, the prosecution may be deferred or ultimately dismissed.
