--- Comment #1 from Caroline Cyr La Rose <caroline.cyr-la-rose at inlibro.com> ---
So I wrote most of the section on restrictions. The only thing left is the
consequences of restrictions. Sometimes it blocks checkout, sometimes it
doesn't block checkouts. And I can't find the logic.

The four types of restrictions are:
- Manual (go in and add a restriction manually)
- Discharge (restriction added when creating a discharge in the user's record)
- Suspension (restriction added when overdue material is returned and circ
rules state that user must be suspended for X days)
- Overdues (restriction is added when overdue notice is sent and it is
specified to restrict users)

Manual restrictions can have expiration dates or not.
Discharge restrictions are indefinite (no expiration date).
Suspension restrictions have expiration dates.
Overdues restrictions are indefinite (or until materials are returned if
AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions is on).

I've tried to read the code to see the conditions when checkouts would be
allowed even if the patron is restricted, but I'm not a programmer so I don't
understand much of it. 

Can someone help me?
