Answer:

Indeterminate sentence

Step-by-step explanation:

An indeterminate sentence is a sentence given for a crime that does not have a definite duration of time. There is no specific period of time or release date, but just a range of time, such as five-to-ten years. The inmate can be returned to society or be kept in prison for life depending upon the judge decision.
