$ can be converted to string.format.

var CutOffTextFragment = deadLineTime.Deadline.Minute == 0 
                         ? 
                         string.Format("{0:htt}",deadLineTime.Deadline) 
                         : 
                         string.Format("{0:h:mmtt}", deadLineTime.Deadline);
