Discharge Eligibility Checker

Check whether your offence meets the two threshold legal requirements for an absolute or conditional discharge in Ontario.

Estimate only — not legal advice. Meeting these thresholds doesn't guarantee a judge will actually grant a discharge.

🚫

No Mandatory Minimums

An offence with any mandatory minimum penalty is automatically disqualified from a discharge.

⚖️

Under the 14-Year Ceiling

Offences punishable by 14 years or life imprisonment cannot receive a discharge, regardless of circumstances.

🎯

Threshold Isn't the End

Meeting both requirements only makes a discharge legally possible — the judge still decides whether to grant one.

📁

No Criminal Record

A discharge, if granted, generally means no criminal conviction is entered on your record.
