What is the meaning of suspended imposition of sentence?

[Edit]

Answer

A suspended imposition of sentence or s.i.s. is basically suspends a sentence. There is usually a duration put on the s.i.s. that is known as the probation. Usually a person has a s.i.s. when they plead guilty or plea bargain for a crime. Basically, the courts are seeing if a person can act better. If a person gets in trouble again during their probation period, then the court can punish the person for the crime that they committed previously. If the person does not get in trouble during their probation period, then the crime is forgiven and the person is not convicted.
