Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 474 provides for "Commutation of sentence.", the listed commutations being permitted without the sentenced person's consent. "Suspension of execution of sentence." and "Remission of punishment." are addressed separately in section 473, and commutation substitutes a permitted form or term of punishment without the "Review and reversal of the finding of guilt."
