conditional sentence / explanation Explanation: In Argentine law, you actually serve time in jail if you are convicted to more than xx years (I think 3, but not totally sure). This is called "pena de cumplimiento efectivo". Otherwise, you don't actually spend time in jail; your records show, however, that you have been convicted. This is "en suspenso" or "de cumplimiento condicional". The number of years depends on the crime, and it is defined in the Penal Code. I think "conditional sentence" is a suitable translation, but you may want to wait for a native English colleague to confirm this. "Acá se confunde la culpa con el dolo, pero si subís a un auto y andás a contramano, tenés que pensar que podés matar; por eso los delitos viales tienen que estar contemplados como 'homicidio simple', con penas que van de 8 a 25 años. Bajo la ley vigente, matar con un auto tiene una pena máxima de 3 años y por lo tanto es excarcelable". http://www.favat.org.ar/notas/nt0.htm "se solicita la pena de cumplimiento efectivo debido a que el imputado en esta causa registra una condena anterior por un hecho ocurrido en el año 90, pero quedó firme en el año 94, y en este caso el Código Penal dispone que la segunda condena no puede ser de cumplimiento en suspenso". http://www.p23.com.ar/ediciones/2001/noviembre/22/policiales... What is a conditional sentence? When a court finds a person guilty of a crime, the person may be sentenced to time in prison or, in certain circumstances, may be allowed to serve the sentence in the community. This is called a conditional sentence. During a conditional sentence, the offender is supervised and must follow the rules set by the judge or risk going to prison. http://canada.justice.gc.ca/en/ps/voc/cond_sent.html Hope it helps, regards, Patricia |
