A quick definition of alternative sentence:
An alternative sentence is a punishment given to someone who has done something wrong, but instead of going to jail, they have to do something else like community service or pay money to the person they hurt. It's a different option than just going to prison.A more thorough explanation:
An alternative sentence is a punishment given to a criminal that is not incarceration. This can include community service or victim restitution. It is also known as a creative sentence.
For example, instead of sending someone to jail for stealing, a judge may order them to perform community service for a certain number of hours. This is an alternative sentence because it is not the typical punishment of incarceration.
