recidivation

Read a random definition: advocate-depute

A quick definition of recidivation:

Term: RECIDIVATION

Definition: Recidivation is an old-fashioned word that means the same thing as recidivism. Recidivism is when someone keeps doing bad things even after they have been punished for it. It's like they can't stop themselves from doing bad things again and again. We also call people who do this "recidivists".

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Recidivation is an archaic term for recidivism, which refers to the tendency of a person to relapse into criminal behavior or activity.

Example: John was released from prison after serving a sentence for theft. However, he soon returned to his old ways and was arrested again for stealing. This is an example of recidivism.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a person who has been convicted of a crime may continue to engage in criminal behavior even after being punished. Recidivism is a serious problem in the criminal justice system, as it suggests that the punishment alone may not be enough to deter individuals from committing crimes again.

@Eminatorcookieeater: same and my sub status was blank yesterday - trying to research what it means
@shaquilleoatmeal: ooo I wonder what that means, hopefully it means we'll hear back soon

It looks like an update to the sub status (it saying complete instead of being blank) means some sort of review has happened - basically a UR2. Seems like those who got a substatus change got a decision a few days after...
