Art. 106
Fines 1Unless the law provides otherwise, the maximum amount of a fine is 10,000 francs. 2In its judgment, the court shall impose an alternative custodial sentence of at least one day and a maximum of three months for the event that the fine is wilfully not paid. 3The court determines the fine and the alternative custodial sentence based on the offender's circumstances so that the offender receives the sentence that is commensurate with his culpable conduct. 4On retrospective payment of the fine, the offender is released from the alternative custodial sentence. 5Articles 35 and 36 paragraphs 2-5 apply by analogy to execution and conversion. |
