English term

adjourned the hearing for the preparation of a pre-sentence report

English to Chinese Law/Patents Law (general)
The District Judge has now adjourned the hearing for the preparation of a pre-sentence report until the 19th June 2007 at 9.45am at xxx Court. In adjourning for the report he did say that he has ruled out any question of imposing a custodial sentence on you, and what he has in mind is a community penalty of some sort.

Thanks in advance for your help!

pre-sentence report the magistrates pass sentence on a guilty prisoner, and naturally take into account advice from the police and the probation service to do so.

A quotation from text book.

量刑报告

中国具体执行方法不详,这里都统称量刑报告。见下:

Pre-sentence reports are:

* usually requested after a person charged with a crime has pleaded guilty to a charge/s and before they are sentenced
* written by probation officers
* detailed reports that examine various aspects of the person's past and current situation

Prior to writing pre-sentence reports, in-depth interviews are conducted with the offender.

Pre-sentence reports include information on the offender's:

* family background and other relationships
* education and employment
* accommodation
* financial situation
* health
* alcohol and drug use
* previous offending behaviour and the current offence

The purpose of a pre-sentence report is to give the magistrate or judge information to assist them in deciding on an appropriate sentence.

Sentencing options include:

* a fine
* a community service order
* a probation order
* a suspended sentence
* imprisonment
* a combination of the above penalties
