Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discretion involves decision making by individuals in criminal justice, such as police officers deciding whether to make an arrest, prosecutors deciding whether to charge a suspect, and judges deciding on a sentence. While deterrence and policy may play a role in these decisions, it is ultimately up to the discretion of those involved in the criminal justice system. "Fiat" is not a relevant term in this context.
