/spɛnt kənˈvɪkʃən/ – Phrase
Definition: Tội phạm đã trải qua quá trình xử lý và không bị kết án.
A more thorough explanation: (UK) In the UK, the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act allows convictions to be “spent” after a certain period of time. For instance, for anyone sentenced to less than six months in prison, their conviction has become spent after two years.
Example: Spent convictions typically do not need to be disclosed to employers.
