Law/Patents - Law (general) | | English term or phrase: penalty assessment | Context: The maximum penalty for most misdemeanor offenses is one year in the county jail and a fine of up to $1000 plus penalty assessments, which are now more than the fine itself and which are required by statute to be imposed. You may be required to pay restitution to the victim or to the State Restitution Fund also.
"penalty assessment"与"fine"如何翻译？我查到的这两个词的中文翻译都是“罚金”，但是在此处对这两个词的翻译应该有所区别才能传达原文的意思。应该怎样区别翻译才合适呢？ |

| Grading comment Thank you for the answer. But "penalty assessment" here is a monetary punishment. Inspired by your answer, I think it can be translated as "附加罚金". Thank you!
