Case No:

Note: In this notice, serious violent offence means any of the offences listed in the definition of that expression in section 86A of the Sentencing Act 2002 (a copy of the definition of serious violent offence is attached).

To [full name, address, and occupation of defendant]

1

On [date], you were convicted of the following serious violent offence(s): [list offences].

2

I have given you a first warning, in which I warned you of the consequences if you are convicted of any serious violent offence committed after that first warning.

3

This notice records in writing the consequences that I explained to you.

Consequences of first warning

If you are convicted of any serious violent offence (except murder) committed after you received the first warning, you will receive a final warning. In addition, if the Judge imposes a sentence of imprisonment for that offence (other than life imprisonment for manslaughter, or preventive detention) then you will serve that sentence without parole or early release.

If you are convicted of a murder committed after you received the first warning, you will be sentenced to imprisonment for life. You must serve the life sentence without parole unless it would be manifestly unjust to do so. If you receive a life sentence without parole, you will not be released from prison. If serving the sentence without parole would be manifestly unjust, the Judge must specify the minimum term of imprisonment you will serve.

This notice records in writing the consequences that I explained to you.

Consequences of final warning

If you are convicted of any serious violent offence (except murder or manslaughter) committed after you received the final warning, you will either be—

sentenced to preventive detention. You will serve a minimum term of imprisonment of at least the length of the maximum term of imprisonment for the offence, unless that would be manifestly unjust. In that case, the Judge must specify the minimum term of imprisonment that you will serve.

If you are convicted of a murder committed after you received the final warning, you will be sentenced to imprisonment for life. You must serve the life sentence without parole unless it would be manifestly unjust to do so. If you receive a life sentence without parole, you will not be released from prison.

If serving the life sentence without parole would be manifestly unjust, the Judge must impose a minimum term of imprisonment of at least 20 years unless that would also be manifestly unjust. In that case, the Judge must specify the minimum term of imprisonment that you will serve.

If you are convicted of manslaughter committed after you received the final warning, you will be sentenced to imprisonment for life. The Judge must impose a minimum term of imprisonment of at least 20 years unless that would be manifestly unjust.
