Yes, that is the ACD expiration date. No need to appear if what you are saying is accurate

That is likely the date the case gets dismissed and sealed (is it 6 months from the date you accepted the ACD?). If so, dismissal is automatic and you do not have to appear in court.

You do NOT need to appear on the date and ACD expires. It is dismissed as a matter of law. You may want to go back to court at some time after that and pay 10$ for a copy of a certificate of disposition. That is the document you will use to show the matter is dismissed and sealed should anyone ask or need it.

If the date is six months from date you accepted the ACD than its just a control date. Your case will be dismissed on that date. If you need to get a certificate of disposition wait a day after the dismissal date. (A certificate of disposition will not be available on the same day.)
