Legal Sanctions

Legal sanctions are penalties imposed by law for failing to comply with legal rules or regulations. They can take various forms, including fines, imprisonment, community service, or loss of rights (like driving privileges). Sanctions serve to deter illegal behavior, punish wrongdoers, and protect society. They are typically determined by a court or legal authority following a violation of the law. The severity of the sanction usually depends on the nature of the offense and the circumstances surrounding it.
