Under which circumstance would an officer need to complete a page 13?

A page 13 is typically used in law enforcement to document patterns of misconduct or deviations from standard procedures. When an officer notes a series of events that indicate a pattern of behavior that could be problematic, it becomes necessary to complete this form to formally document these concerns. This helps ensure accountability and provides a record for supervisors and other reviewing authorities.

In contrast, the other scenarios do not warrant the completion of a page 13. Lesser offenses may be addressed through different reporting mechanisms, a formality would not necessitate such detailed documentation, and the assertion that it is never required contradicts the established use of the page 13 form to track misconduct. Thus, the correct circumstance for completing a page 13 is notably tied to identifying and documenting patterns of misconduct.
