INTERLOCUTORY ORDERS

 

No. 06-6001/NA.  U.S. v. Charles W. DAVIS.  CCA 9600585.  On consideration of the pleadings filed in this appeal under Article 62, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 862 (2000), the Court notes that the Government’s filing of a short letter to the Clerk of the Court in general opposition to the petition for grant of review does not comply with Rule 21(c)(1) of the Court’s Rules of Practice and Procedure.  That provision requires the appellee in an Article 62 appeal to file an answer within 10 days of the filing of the appellant’s supplement.  The provision allowing for the filing of a short letter with the Clerk of the Court within 10 days of the filing of the supplement to the petition under Rule 21(c)(2) is for other appeals not filed under Article 62.  Therefore, it is ordered that the appellee will file an answer within 10 days of the date of this Order to both of the issues raised by the appellant; and that the Appellant may file a reply within 5 days after the filing of the appellee’s answer.

No. 05-0159/AR.   U.S. v. Jeremy T. WILCOX.  CCA 20000876. On further consideration of the record in this case, the Court notes that the military judge indicated that a “military judge’s brief” regarding the denial of the defense motion to dismiss the charge and specification under Article 134, Uniform Code of Military Justice, would be attached to the record as Appellate Exhibit IX, yet such a brief is not attached to the record of trial.  It is therefore ordered that within 10 days of the date of this order, Appellee locate and file the “military judge’s brief” with the Court, or provide an explanation to the Court on why it is not attached.

B.   WHETHER IT IS APPROPRIATE TO APPLY WAIVER WHERE THE DEFENSE USED ITS PEREMPTORY CHALLENGE AGAINST ONE OF THE TWO MEMBERS CHALLENGED FOR CAUSE AND, DURING CLEMENCY, MADE IT CLEAR THAT IT WOULD HAVE USED THAT PEREMPTORY CHALLENGE ON THE OTHER CHALLENGED MEMBER BUT FOR THE MILITARY JUDGE'S ERROR;

 

C.   WHETHER - IF WAIVER APPLIES - TRIAL DEFENSE COUNSEL PROVIDED INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL BY NOT PROPERLY PRESERVING THE CHALLENGES FOR CAUSE.

 

II. WHETHER THE MILITARY JUDGE ERRED BY APPLYING MRE 412 TO SUPPRESS DEFENSE EVIDENCE OF THE ALLEGED VICTIM'S MOTIVE TO LIE AND PRIOR SEXUAL BEHAVIOR WITH APPELLANT.

APPEALS - SUMMARY DISPOSITIONS

 

No. 03-0478/AR.  U.S. v. Kenneth M. KERR.  CCA 20021064.  On

consideration of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Army Court of Criminal Appeals, said petition is granted and the decision of the United States Army Court of Criminal Appeals is affirmed.  [See also ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW this date.]

 

No. 05-0427/AR.  U.S. v. Anthony T. BRYANT.  CCA 20030283.  On

consideration of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Army Court of Criminal Appeals, said petition is granted on the following issue:

 

WHETHER, TO THE SUBSTANTIAL PREJUDICE OF APPELLANT, THE TRIAL DEFENSE COUNSEL PROVIDED INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL TO APPELLANT IN THE POST-TRIAL PHASE WHEN HE FAILED TO:  (A) OBTAIN APPELLANT'S INFORMED CONSENT FOR THE SPECIFIC REQUEST FOR POST-TRIAL CLEMENCY; (B) ALLOW APPELLANT AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE ALLIED DOUCMENTS IN THE CLEMENCY REQUEST, INCLUDING A STATEMENT ON HIS OWN BEHALF; (C) SHARE WITH APPELLANT THE STAFF JUDGE ADVOCATE'S RECOMMENDATION; (D) KEEP APPELLANT INFORMED AS TO WHEN POST-TRIAL MATTERS WERE DUE, PROVIDE ADVICE ON HOW TO SEEK CLEMENCY, AND PROVIDE A COPY OF MATERIALS SUBMITTED ON HIS BEHALF; AND (E) INFORM THE CONVENING AUTHORITY OF THE IMPACT OF A PUNITIVE DISCHARGE ON APPELLANT'S POTENTIAL RETIREMENT BENEFITS IN LIGHT OF APPELLANT'S INDEFINITE ENLISTMENT STATUS AND YEARS OF ACTIVE SERVICE.

 

     The decision of the United States Army Court of Criminal Appeals is set aside.  The record of trial is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Army for remand to that court to obtain an affidavit from trial defense counsel that responds to Appellant’s allegation of ineffective assistance of counsel.  Under Article 66(c), Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), 10 U.S.C. § 866(c) (2000), the Court of Criminal Appeals shall review its original decision on the granted issue in light of the affidavit and any other relevant matters.  See United States v. Ginn, 47 M.J. 236 (C.A.A.F. 1997).  Thereafter, Article 67, UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. § 867 (2000), shall apply.  [See also ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW this date.]
