The following chapters review research on levels and trends in the skills workers possess, the skills employers demand, and the evidence for skill shortages or mismatches between the two. This tripartite structure is dictated by the nature of the data, which precludes a unified treatment of the question. There is limited reliable and representative data on workforce competencies, even less on job demands, and the evidence in each area is largely incommensurable.
What Does âAdjudication Withheldâ or âWithhold of Adjudicationâ Mean in Florida? Definition of Withhold of Adjudication: A unique sentencing option that is available to judges in many criminal cases arising out of Pinellas County. It is intended to give first-time offenders and those with a minimal prior criminal history a second chance by avoiding a formal conviction.
If the Judge withholds adjudication of guilt, it means you have not been formally found guilty of the crime and there is no conviction. It is possible to plea guilty to a crime but still receive a withhold of adjudication and thus, not be convicted of the crime. However, for punishment, the Judge can still order you to probation or other sanctions. 1  If you receive a withhold of adjudication of guilt, you can lawfully deny being convicted of a crime. 2  You may also be eligible to have your criminal record sealed.
