text: In context|legal|lang=en terms the difference between diversion and conversion is that diversion is (legal) officially halting or suspending a formal criminal or juvenile justice proceeding and referral of the accused person to a treatment or care program while conversion is (legal) under the common law, the tort of the taking of someone's personal property with intent to permanently deprive them of it, or damaging property to the extent that the owner is deprived of the utility of that property, thus making the tortfeasor liable for the entire value of the property.
