ACD or Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal: defined in 170.55 and 170.56 of the CPL, it is effectively a pre-adjudication disposition where the defendant promises to stay out of trouble for a period of time - usually six months to one year and the court agrees that if the defendant is successful, the case will be dismissed.
