custodial sanction
(or) custodial sentence
There may be is a typical legal ellipsis in this expression, since the meaning appears to be "sanción punitiva de (privación de) libertad". In English, this is termed "custodial sanction (or) sentence, as opposed to a noncustodial sanction or sentence, which doesn't entail a loss of liberty.

: You beat me to it whilst I was digging out this US Am. weblink https://supremecourt.nebraska.gov/supreme-court-rules/chapte... I also think it may not be a custodial sentence handed down by a crim. ct. but a Fisco 'detention'- cf. the IRS.

Thanks, Sandro (yes, although the generic term "sanction" is used, the text appears to refer to a sentence handed down by a criminal court).

: Great way to encompass the essential meaning. Do you think custodial penalty could work as well?

Thanks, Michael. "Custodial penalty" has the same meaning; "custodial sentence" is what's most often used in English (providing it's a cutodial sanction imposed by a judge).

: This is technically correct, but it is not stylistically correct for this particular context. Your ICNL link is really interesting. Thanks!

Sandro Tomasi
: The term is correct, but limited to "prison" sentences. There could be a split sentence where def. rec. time served in a local "jail" and probation.
