Police caution
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the statement of rights read before an arrest, see Miranda Warning.
A police caution is a formal alternative to prosecution in minor cases, administered by the police in England and Wales. It is commonly used to resolve cases where full prosecution is not seen as the most appropriate solution.[1]

Purpose[edit]
A police caution (since 2005 more properly known as a simple caution)[2] is a formal warning given by the police to anyone aged 10 years or over and who has admitted that they are guilty of a minor crime. A person who does not agree can be prosecuted.
A police caution as a non-statutory disposal of an offence should not be confused with the caution used for the purpose of advising a suspect of their right to silence.[3]
The aims of the formal police caution[4][5] are:
to offer a proportionate response to low-level offending where the offender has admitted the offence;
to deliver swift, simple and effective justice that carries a deterrent effect;
to record an individual's criminal conduct for possible reference in future criminal proceedings or in criminal record or other similar checks;
to reduce the likelihood of re-offending;
to increase the amount of time officers spend dealing with more serious crime and reduce the amount of time police officers spend completing paperwork and attending court, whilst simultaneously reducing the burden on the courts;
Types of cautions[edit]
As a result of changes made by the Criminal Justice Act 2003, cautions can be administered in two forms: as a simple caution or as a conditional caution, the latter of which has specific conditions attached that the offender must satisfy—attending a course aimed at targeting offending behaviour, for example. The Home Office has released guidance to the police and prosecutors on the use of the simple caution.[6][7]
Although a caution is not a conviction, it forms a part of a person's criminal record and can be used as evidence of bad character if a person is prosecuted for another crime,[4][8] and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks (previously called Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checks) for certain types of employment.[2] A caution might cause some countries not to allow visits to, or residence in, that country.[2]
Circumstances for use[edit]
In order to safeguard the offender's interests, the following conditions must be met before a caution can be administered:
there must be reasonable suspicion to believe an offence has been committed
the offender must admit that they are guilty of the offence
the offender must understand the significance of a caution and give informed consent to being cautioned.
Where the available evidence does not meet the standard normally required to bring a prosecution, a caution cannot be administered. A caution will not be appropriate where a person does not make a clear and reliable admission of the offence (for example if intent is denied or there are doubts about his mental health or intellectual capacity).
Cautions are typically administered in the case of an offence that is triable summarily or either-way.[9] The Ministry of Justice recommends that the decision to offer a simple caution for the most serious of offences (an indictable only offence, an either-way offence routinely dealt with at the Crown Court or any offence which the sentencing guidelines indicate has a starting point at high level community order or sentence of imprisonment) is taken only in exceptional circumstances.[4]
People aged 17 or under may receive a youth caution where the following conditions are met:
there must be evidence that the offender has committed an offence;
the quality of the evidence must be sufficient to give a realistic prospect of conviction;
the offender must admit the offence;
the offender must have no previous convictions;
a prosecution of the offence would not be in the public interest.
On 13 April 2015,[10] the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015 implemented restrictions on the use of cautions by the police:[11]
for indictable offences, they may be used only in exceptional circumstances, and then only with the consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions;
for specified either-way offences,[12] only "in exceptional circumstances relating to the person or the offence;"
for summary offences and all other either-way offences, where a person has been convicted or cautioned in the previous two years for a similar offence, only "in exceptional circumstances relating to the person, the offence admitted or the previous offence;" and
only a police officer at or above a minimum rank specified by order[13] may determine where exceptional circumstances and similar offences exist.
Administration[edit]
There is no statutory basis for the formal caution, it is a discretionary procedure adopted by the police under Home Office guidance.[2]
Only the police have the power to administer a caution. The CPS does, however, have a role to play in helping the police to ensure that the Ministry of Justice guidelines contained within the Guidance are applied consistently and fairly.[14]
CPS officers are instructed to refer to the police any case in which they consider a caution is the appropriate way of handling the offence. Where the CPS remains satisfied that a caution is appropriate but the police refuse to administer one, the CPS guidance recommends that the case is not accepted for the prosecution.
Duration[edit]
Per the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, simple cautions, reprimands and final warnings become spent (meaning that they do not need to be disclosed, unless applying for particular types of work) immediately, and conditional cautions become spent after 3 months.[15]
Cautions will appear on a DBS certificate until 6 years have passed (or 2 years if the person was under 18 at the time of caution) provided the offence is not on the prescribed list of offences that will never be filtered from a criminal record check.[16]
All information relating to simple cautions (as well as convictions) issued for a recordable offence is retained on the Police National Computer (PNC). Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) guidelines set out how long this information will be retained for. The information is kept for police operational reasons and in the interest of prevention and detection of crime.[4]
History[edit]
It is likely the practice of using police cautions began early in the nineteenth century. In the 1920s written warnings started being given for motoring offences. In 1928 the Home Office published statistics on cautions, and by 1931 was giving advice on the wording of cautions.[2]
In 1959 the Street Offences Act made a provision for removing cautions from criminal records. In 1962 Royal Commission on the Police noted concerns about the uneven enforcement of cautions. In 1978 the Home Office issued its first circular to bring about consistency in the use of cautions for juveniles, and in 1985 for adults.[2]
From 1995 cautions were recorded on the Police National Computer, and it was recommended that cautions should be retained for 5 years, though each police force could follow its own guidelines. The 1997 Police Act made provision for disclosing cautions to employers of those who might have unsupervised contact with children.[2]
The Criminal Justice Act 2003 introduced the concept of statutory Conditional Cautions.[2]
By the early 2000s police forces were given targets for the number of offences brought to justice. As giving a caution was a way of bringing an offence to justice more easily than going to court, in some policing areas the number of cautions given increased to about 30% of all offences brought to justice.[2]
In 2006 new guidelines were issued for the retention of records until the subject reached 100 years of age, but after 5 or 10 years, depending on the severity of the offence, they would only be used for DBS checks.[2]
In 2008 a Home Office circular made clear suspects must receive a written explanation of the implications before accepting a caution, to meet the informed consent obligation, and provided a new form to be signed by the offender which explained in considerable detail the consequences.[2]
In recent years a lower level resolution of offences has often been used by police forces in England and Wales instead of a caution. This is usually called a 'community resolution' and invariably requires less police time as offenders are not arrested. A community resolution does not require any formal record but the offender should admit the offence and the victim should be happy with this method of informal resolution. Concerns have been expressed over the use of community resolution for violent offences, in particular 'domestic violence'.[17]

Background[edit]
Gosdin credited the genesis of the song to a workman who used the idiomatic expression which became the song's title:
"I was wanting an addition put on my house, an extra room over my garage. I met with the carpenters one morning, then left my house and drove to Nashville for the day. When I got home, they had almost finished the addition. I complimented them on their work, and one guy said, 'This ain't our first rodeo.' I went into the house and jotted that down, then wrote the song later with Hank [Cochran] and Max [D. Barnes]."[1]
Content[edit]
The lyrics explain a tale of experience, including these repeated lines:
This ain't the first time this old cowboy's been throwed
This ain't the first I've seen this dog and pony show
Honey, This ain't my first rodeo
Chart performance[edit]
The song was number 10 in Radio and Records during the week of November 26, 1990.[2] It reached number 14 on Hot Country Songs.

The Committee on Rules, or (more commonly) Rules Committee, is a committee of the United States House of Representatives. Rather than being responsible for a specific area of policy, as most other committees are, it is in charge of determining under what rule other bills will come to the floor. As such, it is one of the most powerful committees and is often described as "an arm of the leadership" and as the "traffic cop of Congress." A rule is a simple resolution of the House of Representatives, usually reported by the Committee on Rules, to permit the immediate consideration of a legislative measure, notwithstanding the usual order of business, and to prescribe conditions for its debate and amendment.[1]

Jurisdiction[edit]
When a bill is reported out of one of the other committees, it does not go straight to the House floor, because the House, unlike the United States Senate, does not have unlimited debate and discussion on a bill. Instead, what may be said and done to a bill is strictly limited. This limitation is performed by the Rules Committee.
When a bill is reported out of another committee with legislative jurisdiction, it is placed on the appropriate House Calendar for debate. Common practice, though, is for bills reported from committees to be considered in the Rules Committee, which will decide for how long and under what rules the full body will debate the proposition.
Consideration by the full body can be in one of two forums: the Committee of the Whole, or on the floor of the full House of Representatives itself. Different traditions govern whether the Committee of the Whole or the House itself will debate a given resolution, and the Rules Committee generally sets the forum under which a proposition will be debated and the amendment/time limitations for every measure, too. For instance, there might be a limit on the number or types of amendments (proposed changes to the bill). Amendments might only be allowed to specific sections of the bill, or no amendments might be allowed at all. Besides control over amendments, the rule issued by the Rules Committee also determines the amount of speaking time assigned on each bill or resolution. If the leadership wants a bill pushed forward quietly, for instance, there might be no debate time scheduled; if they want attention, they might allow time for lengthy speeches in support of the bill.
Between control over amendments, debate, and when measures will be considered, the Rules Committee exerts vast power in the House. As such, the majority party will usually be very keen on controlling it tightly. While most House committees maintain membership in a rough proportion to the full chamber (If the majority party controls 55% of the House, it will tend to have 55% of committee seats), membership on the Rules Committee is disproportionately in favor of the majority party.
History[edit]
The Rules Committee was formed on April 2, 1789, during the first Congress. However, it had nowhere near the powerful role it has today. Instead, it merely proposed general rules for the House to follow when debating bills (rather than passing a special rule for each bill), and was dissolved after proposing these general rules. These general rules still have a great impact on the tone of the House floor today.
The Rules Committee, for a long time, lay dormant. For the first fifty years of its existence, it accomplished little beyond simply reaffirming these rules, and its role was very noncontroversial. On June 16, 1841, it made a major policy change, reducing from 2/3 to 1/2 the fraction of votes needed in the House to close debate and vote on a bill.
In 1880, the modern Rules Committee began to emerge from the reorganization of the House Committees. When the Republican party took over the House in the election of 1880, they quickly realized the power that the Rules Committee possessed. One member, Thomas Brackett Reed (R-Maine), used a seat on the Rules Committee to vault himself to the Speakership, and gained so much power that he was referred to as "Czar Reed".
In the 1890s and 1900s, Reed and his successor, Joseph Gurney Cannon (R-Illinois) used the Rules Committee to centralize the power of the Speakership. Although their power to place members in committees and perform other functions was limited by a forced rule change in 1910, the Rules Committee retained its power. However, it ceased to function as the personal project of the Speaker, as it had originally; instead, as the seniority system took root, it was captured by a coalition of conservative Democrats and Republicans. This state of affairs would continue until the 1960s.
In 1961, Speaker Sam Rayburn (D-Texas), acting on the wishes of the new President John F. Kennedy and the Democratic Study Group, introduced a bill to enlarge the committee from 12 members to 15, to decrease the power of the arch-conservative chairman, Howard W. Smith (D-Virginia). The bill passed, 217 votes to 212. However, it was only partially successful; the Rules Committee continued to block legislation including civil rights and education bills.
In the 1970s, however, the Rules Committee was firmly under the command of the Speaker once again. As before, its primary role is to come up with special rules, to help or obstruct the chances of legislation reported to it.

Chairs, 1849–1853 and 1880–present[edit]
The Committee on Rules was first a standing committee of the House, during the 31st and 32nd Congresses (1849–1853). From 1853 until 1880, the panel reverted to being a select committee (as it had been before 1849).[2]
Between 1880 and the revolt against Speaker Cannon, in March 1910, the Speaker of the House also served as Chairman of the Rules Committee.

Plot[edit]
This section's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. (July 2017) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Tyler (Taylor John Smith) is a 17-year-old high school student in love with his girlfriend Alison 'Ali' (Halston Sage), and they have two best friends: Gil (Nash Grier) and Lydia (Anna Akana). One night at a party, Tyler discovers before Ali moved to their school, she was a heavy partier and would often drink and sleep around. Tyler gets angry and they break up. Outside the party, he meets mysterious Holly (Bella Thorne). They end up partying and sleeping together. They spend the rest of the weekend in Holly's huge house, with Holly telling Tyler her father died and her stepmom travels a lot. Tyler says that the weekend was special before leaving, seemingly forgetting all about Holly.
Tyler gets back together with Ali the following day, and while at school, notices Holly. Holly reveals that she goes there now and wanted to surprise him. Tyler tries cutting ties with Holly multiple times but failing each time. Holly starts hanging out with Ali, Gil, and Lydia. Lydia starts becoming suspicious of Holly when she sees no social media presence. Afterward, Ali texts Tyler that she and the girls are going to meet up at his workplace. When they get there, Ali is going through Holly's iPad looking at her pictures until she stops when she sees a shirtless picture taken of Tyler. Ali inquires more about it, but Holly brushes it off, saying that its a really long story. The three of them leave to go find Gil at the beach. Holly begins taking pictures of the happy couple, complimenting them. Ali brings up "the shirtless guy" again and Holly tells Ali and Gil about him due to Ali's constant badgering. Holly tells them a very descriptive story, leading to her using Gil as an example. They begin making out, Holly trying to make Tyler jealous, and they continue to make out all the way to Tyler's car. Ali interrupts asking if Holly was ready, and due to Gil's reluctance, he seems to be infatuated with her. They both leave the car going inside Ali's house for some "girl talk." Tyler drives Gil home and stops him just when he was about to leave to talk to him about something. Tyler tells him that he slept with Holly the night of Melinda's party. Gil asks him how the sex was and Tyler refuses to talk about saying that Holly's trying to mess with him because she has no other reason to hang out with Alison. Gil tells him not to worry about it. Tyler tells him that he's gonna tell Ali, Gil refuses, telling him that he just fixed things with her. Gil thanks him again for the car ride and leaves. Tyler gets home and tries to text Ali to let her invite him to her house but Holly ends up sleeping over so he couldn't.
Holly shows up to Tyler's house on Sunday telling him that Ali knows what happened between them. He's furious asking her why would she do that, but Holly never tells him. She was kidding, and Tyler tells her that she's insane. Tyler starts suspecting that Holly is dangerous, especially when meeting her stepmom, Corinne, who reveals that she takes medication and Holly lied to him about where she's from. Holly gives Lydia the wrong smoothie on purpose, causing an allergic reaction that puts her in the hospital after she heard Lydia telling Ali that she doesn't buy her story and is going to find out what's going on. Tyler has a nightmare about Holly killing him and she doesn't show up to school for the next few days. Gil is hurt because Holly hadn't been in contact with him for awhile, and doesn't know what he did wrong.
When she comes back to school, Holly tells Ali that she's pregnant but not in contact with the guy who did it. Tyler asks Holly what she wants from him after she shows up at his house, to which she responds for them to be together. While trying to sneak up on Tyler, he knocks her down, causing her lip to bleed. Holly tells Ali that she and Tyler slept together the night before he decides to tell her. Tyler and Ali meet at the beach, he tells her the truth and Ali says she never wants to talk to him again.
Holly gets Tyler suspended, saying that he assaulted her. Tyler finds out that Holly's real first name is Elizabeth (Holly is a middle name). He looks her up online and discovers that she assaulted a student over a boy, and went to a mental institution for a while. That night, when Ali's parents leave, Holly knocks her out. When Ali doesn't respond to Tyler's texts, he starts to suspect Holly. He leaves a message with Gil to meet him at Holly's house and starts driving over there. Ali awakens to discover she's tied up and bound to a chair in Holly's house and Holly lied about being pregnant. Corinne comes home and while trying to untie Ali, Holly sneaks up behind her and suffocates her with a plastic bag, killing her.
When Tyler arrives, he sees Holly sitting in front of the fireplace, the first place he saw her the morning he woke up in her house previously. Holly tries recreating the weekend as Tyler runs around the house looking for Ali. He discovers Ali unconscious tied mid-air to the ceiling, forehead bleeding. He lowers her down, wakes her up, grabs a fire poker and starts trying to escape the house as Holly goes to get her gun. Tyler and Ali make it outside and before they get away, Holly stops them at gunpoint. Tyler tells Holly that he loves Ali and not her and he never will. Gil shows up behind them calling out Holly's name. Distracted, Holly shoots Tyler in the shoulder then attempts to shoot Gil but misses. Ali picks up the fire poker and stabs Holly in the side, causing Holly to fall back into the pool. Gil and Ali huddle around Tyler while waiting for the police to arrive.
Holly is wheeled into the back of an ambulance and asking the paramedic man to never leave her and makes him promise, implying she'll be obsessed with him. The film ends with Tyler, Ali, and Lydia having fun at Tyler's little sister's birthday party.
