suspended sentence may be added to the fine
fines can certainly be suspended but I wonder if that is really what is meant here; as always, more context would make things clearer
3 hrs
deferred fine
Hello,
This is a fine that won't have to be paid if certain conditions are met (good behavior, previous record, etc)
"For a first time individual offense, the appropriate hall director will discuss the College policy violation with the student(s) involved, pointing out the problem and the implications of this violation. A written warning and a $50 deferred fine will be issued. This deferred fine will not be assessed the student (and thus deferred), pending the student has no future alcohol violations during his or her time at Ripon. Participation in an alcohol and drug education course, sponsored by the office of residence life, may also be required at the discretion of the hall director."
