However, under no circumstances shall the individual be placed under the supervision of a designated program for treatment before the entry of a judgment of conviction.

(c) If the court, on the basis of the report or other information, finds that the individual suffering from a substance use disorder is not likely to be rehabilitated through treatment, or that his or her substance use disorder and the crime committed are not significantly related, or that his or her imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is necessary for the protection of the public, the court shall impose sentence as in other cases. The court may require such progress reports on the individual from the probation officer and designated program as the court finds necessary.

No individual may be placed into case management services under treatment supervision unless a designated program accepts him or her for treatment.

(d) (Blank).

Such failure shall be reported by the designated program to the probation officer in charge of the individual and treated in accordance with probation regulations.

(e) (Blank). Upon successful fulfillment of the terms and conditions of probation the court shall discharge the person from probation.

Unless good cause is shown, such motion to vacate must be filed at any time from the date of the entry of the judgment to a date that is not more than 60 days after the discharge of the probation.

(3) Upon fulfillment of the terms and conditions of probation, the court shall discharge the person and dismiss the proceedings against the person.

(4) A disposition of probation is considered to be a conviction for the purposes of imposing the conditions of probation and for appeal; however, a sentence under this Section is not a conviction for purposes of the Unified Code of Corrections or for purposes of disqualifications or disabilities imposed by law upon conviction of a crime unless and until judgment is entered.
