Très peu de personnes comprennent les conséquences qui découlent du régime de détermination de la durée d'une peine. Nous avons miné la détermination de la peine. 1, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9gime%20de%20d%C3%A9termination%20de%20la%20dur%C3%A9e%20d%27une%20peine
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
L'expression "two-for-one" invoque l'appréciation du juge dans le calcul du temps passé en détention provisoire (prison ou pénitencier) et celui du moment de l'imposition de la peine réliée à l'infraction commise. La détermination de la peine tient compte de cette réalité en la soustrayant du calcul des peines. 2, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9gime%20de%20d%C3%A9termination%20de%20la%20dur%C3%A9e%20d%27une%20peine
