PENALTY ORDER

The penal order procedure is a simplified criminal procedure without an oral hearing. A written penal order is issued instead of a judgment. However, this has the same effect as a judgment if no objection is lodged within two weeks . This means that the sentence is enforceable and, if necessary, is entered in the Federal Central Register and also reflected in any police clearance certificate.
