1 at Her Majesty's pleasure
There are certain establishments which, in the event of crime, provide board and lodging for certain types of criminal who have been found guilty of certain acts. They remain there at what is termed Her Majesty's pleasure... in direct association with their age. (A. Christie, ‘Nemesis’, ch. 12) — Существуют некоторые исправительные учреждения, в которых содержатся лица, совершившие определенные преступления. Они отбывают положенный законом срок... с учетом их возраста.
‘You were acquitted?’ ‘I was detained during His Majesty's pleasure. It was quite a short pleasure.’ (Gr. Greene, ‘The Ministry of Fear’, book I, ch. II) — - Вас оправдали? - Я отсидел положенное. Совсем недолго.
