A suspended execution of sentence is when the judge actually renders a sentence to the defendant, but passes the execution of the sentence on defendant unless they commit another offense. The court will then have the right to impose the original sentence upon the defendant. A suspended imposition of sentence is when the judge does not enter a sentence on defendant and has the right to execute a sentence upon the defendant should they commit another offense.
