Moment; prison sentence (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

time

I believe this is a double definition.

'moment' is the first definition.
(time is a kind of moment)

'prison sentence' is the second definition.
(as in 'doing time')

(Other definitions for time that I've seen before include "Prison sentence; occasion" , "Procrastination is the thief of ." , "The father of Truth, presumably" , "Indefinite period" , "See 12" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
