Partial Suspension of Implementation of the Sanction
1. The body that pronounces a match suspension (cf. art. 20), a ban on access to dressing rooms and/or the substitutes’ bench (cf. art.
21) or a ban on playing in a certain stadium (cf. art.
26) shall examine whether it is possible to suspend the implementation of the sanction partially.
2 Partial suspension is permissible only if the duration of the sanction does not exceed six matches or six months and if the circumstances generally allow it, in particular the previous record of the person sanc- tioned.
3 The body decides which part of the sanction may be suspended. In any case, half of the sanction is defi nite.
4 By suspending implementation of the sanction, the body subjects the person sanctioned to a probationary period of from six months to two years.
5 If the person benefi ting from a suspended sanction commits another infringement during the probationary period, the suspension is auto- matically revoked and the sanction applied; it is added to the sanction pronounced for the new infringement.
6 These stipulations are subject to special provisions.
