Hungarian term or phrase: elkövetői alakzat

Dear forum,

What's the English translation of this term?

Context
(Form with details about a conviction)
Buncselekmeny: 188. § 1. BEK. 1 FORD. UTKOZO, 1 BEK. SZERINT MINOSULO: ITTAS ALLAPOTBAN ELKOVETETT KOZUTI JARMUVEZETES VETSEGE
elkovetesi hely: [HELY]
elkovetesi ido: [DATUM]
elkovetoi alakzat: tettes , elkovetesi alakzat: befejezett

I understand it's about the 'type' of perpetrator: was the crime his initiative (tettes) or was he an accomplice (reszes)? But how is this said in English?

Thanks!
Jilt

level of completion

Explanation:
The 1st part should be the "Degree of involvement" (principal — accessory — aider — abetter). Here 'tettes' means principal.

The 2nd part is the "level of completion" It can be: completed act, attempt or preparation, here: 'befejezett' which means completed act.

bases of liability

Explanation:
"A bűncselekmény elkövetői - az előkészület kifejtőjén túl - a tettesek és a részesek. Mindkét elkövetői alakzat gyűjtőkategória. Tettesek a törvény értelmében az egyedüli (önálló) tettes és a társtettes. A büntetőjog-tudomány és a joggyakorlat ezen túl ismeri és alkalmazza a közvetett tettes kategóriáját is. Részesnek a felbujtót és a bűnsegédet tekintjük."

"Persons liable are the principal, accomplice and accessories."

The Smith court also held that where the two ways in which the crime may be committed are practically indistinguishable, the alternative bases of liability, either as principal or accessory, are not conceptually distinct.
106 S.Ct. 257, 88 L.Ed.2d 264 (1985), and in State v. Smith, supra, 605, found that in a case involving potential accessory liability, a jury verdict should be considered unanimous even if some jurors had found the defend.http://ct.findacase.com/research/wfrmDocViewer.aspx/xq/fac.1...
