Answer:
granted a temporary interruption of punishment
Explanation:
Reprieve is considered as a cancellation of some difficult situation or situation without a way out. It is the interruption of a problem you have.
This term is often used in the court where it decides whether the person, a convict is receiving the death punishment or not. If the reprieve is received, the convict will be saved, or to say, he won’t be executed and he will be allowed to live, of course, in the prison, if he is still considered as guilty.
As the reprieve is temporary, after some time the sentence will be defined again.
