Danish to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law (general) / Civil law - debt collection etc.
Danish term or phrase: bødeforvandlingsstraf
The text relates to penalties incurred for non-payment of debts etc. Is it 'alternative penalty' or something like that?

Sorry no more context.

Any help appreciated.
