单词 civil imprisonment
释义
civil imprisonment
civil imprisonment in the Scots law of DILIGENCE or legal enforce- ment, a remedy now considerably restricted, by which the debtor was placed in prison until the debt was discharged. It is still compe- tent for failure to pay fines for CONTEMPT OF COURT and for wilful fail- ure to pay ALIMENT. Failure to perform a decree that orders specific performance (called a decree ad factum praestandum) may result in imprisonment if the court is satisfied that the non-performance is wilful.
