English term or phrase: suspended sentence
Contexto: the court sentenced him to three years in prison, but citing good behavior, that was reduced to a two-year and six-month suspended sentence with no jail time and a travel ban.

Encontrei a seguinte definição de “suspended sentence”: In criminal law, a suspended sentence is an alternative to imprisonment where a judge may partially or entirely suspend the convicted individual's prison or jail sentence so long as they fulfill certain conditions.

Existe algum termo em português para esse tipo de sentença?

Obrigada.

agree  Ana Rita Santiago: No Brasil, "suspensão condicional da pena" ou "sursis" (art. 77 do Código penal) - não exatamente a diminuição da pena, mas a possibilidade de não ficar preso, dependendo do crime.

Sentença suspensa


Explanation:
A tradução funciona no seu sentido denotativo, poderia se substituir ´´sentença`` por ´´pena``, mas ambas as formas são utilizadas.
