The document reviews related literature on curfew laws and their effectiveness. Several studies found curfews may displace juvenile crime to other times and places. Others note a lack of rigorous analysis proving curfews reduce crime. Exceptions to curfews and enforcement measures vary between jurisdictions.

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERTURE AND STUDIES

RELATED STUDY
*According to Xianne Arcangel, CCN Philippines on March 13,2018 The House bill
seeks to limit videoke hours. The House of Representatives on Tuesday started tackling
the bill that seeks to limit the operating hours of videoke machines and other sound
amplifying equipment between 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

House Bill No. 1035, filed by Quezon Rep. Angelina Tan, proposes a P1,000 fine or six
months imprisonment for those who use videoke machines past 10 p.m.

"It shall be unlawful for any person or business establishment to cause unnecessary
disturbance to the public," the bill stated.

The proposed measure included the use of radio, CD player, television set, amplified
musical instruments, drums, loudspeakers, videokes, karaoke systems, and other sound
amplifying equipment.

Businesses that violate the law may lose their license to operate. If the violation is
committed by a corporation, partnership, association, or similar entity, the president,
General Manager, or most senior officers will be held liable.

*According to Elyse R. Grossman and Kathleen S. Hoke(2015) on study of the guidelines


for avoiding pitfalls when drafting juvenile curfew laws: A legal analysis. The Curfew laws
seek to provide general protection to youth and adults by restricting the times that children
of certain ages are allowed to occupy public places or streets. These laws often contain
exemptions for youth accompanied by an adult, responding to an emergency, or traveling
to or from school, work, or a religious service, among others. However, the actual language
used and exemptions included vary by locality.

RELATED STUDY

1. According to (Tolliver, 1994).The curfew law applies to all youth 17 years of age and younger, from 11
p.m. to 5 a.m. week nights, and from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. on weekend nights. The law contains several
exceptions to violations including youths who are: accompanied by a parent or other authorized adult;
exercising first amendment rights (religion, speech, assembly); cases of reasonable necessity; standing
on the sidewalk in front of their residence; returning home within an hour of a school, religious, or
voluntary activity; engaged in employment activity; in a motor vehicle with an authorized driver;
operators or passengers of a motor vehicle in direct route to a destination within or out of the city
limits; married; or homeless and using a public place as an abode. The law also contains a provision to
cite the parents of youth violators if they permit the youth to violate the curfew or fail to prevent the
youth from violating the curfew. Cited parents face a fine of up to $499. Enforcement of this provision is
left to the discretion of the police officer.

2.According to Galabin (2018), studies of curfews conducted by municipalities may have severe
methodological flaws of which does or may not necessarily prove that these ordinances do not work.
Analyzing such impacts are important because curfew policies can be thought of as constituting
treatments. Indeed, if, as basic economic models, crime is a purposive activity, then curfew should only
reduce delinquency if the technology used to produce this behavior is imperfectly substitutable between
curfew and non-curfew hours (Becker, 1968).

3. According to Hemmes and Bennet (1999). Juvenile curfew is proscribing minors, generally within a
specified age, range, from occupying public areas and streets during particular times. These policies are
not new. The first youth curfew was enacted in Omaha, Nebraska in 1880nin 1884. President Harrison
gave a speech endorsing curfews as the most important municipal regulation for the protection of the
children of American homes, from vices of the streets (Norte, 1958).

RELATED LITERATURE

1. according to (DeLucia, 1995; Johnson, 1995; Marketos, 1995; Seibert, 1995; Lester, 1996). Indeed, the
research literature is nearly bereft of studies examining the effects of curfews on crime, the community,
or youth offenders (Ruefle and Reynolds, 1995). The claims in several high profile cities such as Denver,
San Antonio, and New Orleans that serious juvenile crime decreased 30 to 60 percent in their areas
following the adoption of curfew laws have been based on anecdotal evidence, rather than systematic
data collection and analysis (Siebert, 1995).

2. According to (Becker, 1968), crime is a purposive activity, and then curfews should only reduce
delinquency if the technology used to produce this behavior is imperfectly substitutable between curfew
and non-curfew hours.

3. According to Ruffle and Reynolds (1995) reviewed more than 160 newspaper stories about curfews
which appeared during 1993 and part of 1994. They found that the rationale for adoption of curfews in
most cities was to reduce juvenile crime and crime victimization. Several cities were reported to have
adopted curfews both as a hedge against the geographical displacement of juvenile crime to their cities
from other areas and as part of a domino effect when surrounding cities and municipalities passed
them. At the time of the survey, three major American cities (Denver, Phoenix, Orlando) had adopted
city-wide curfews that had specific application to hot spot high crime areas.
