minimum restitution/compensation level
Explanation:
This answer is posted on the assumption that the context is the award of compensation to the victim in criminal proceedings, cfr. Art.º 387, IV, do Código de Processo Penal.

"O juiz criminal tem obrigação, por força de lei, de fixar um valor mínimo para reparar os danos causados por uma infração. (...)
De acordo com o dispositivo do CPP, o juiz “fixará valor mínimo para reparação dos danos causados pela infração, considerando os prejuízos sofridos pelo ofendido”. A norma permite que a vítima, satisfeita com o piso fixado pelo juízo criminal, proceda com a execução do valor, sem impedir que ela discuta, posteriormente, o valor total da reparação na esfera cível, impetrando ação civil ex delicto, de acordo com o artigo 63 do CPP."

In the USA and UK, the criminal courts do not have the power to award damages to the victim, payable by the offender. The award of such damages is a matter for the civil courts. Criminal courts, in England have the power to impose a criminal compensation order that requires the offender to pay compensation to the victim, for injury or other loss / damage. Likewise, the criminal courts in all states of the US have the power to make restitution orders requiring payments by the offender to the victim.

minimum level of securitypayment


Explanation:
Piso: floor or maybe a tier or limit.

Mandado de Segurança Cível : if a civil injunction, the 'indemnity' could be a mimium level of security for costs required from the claimant or plaintiff for launching an action that might turn out unjstified and land the defendant with costs.

If this were insurance, the indemnity limit could be a lowest 'settlement payment'.

E&W > security for costs; US > cost bond.

Example sentence(s):
  • Minimum limit of indemnity Although most Institutes and Associations provide their member firms with specific requirements for the level of PI insurance cover they must carry, this is only a minimum requirement ..
