Appeals – Summary Dispositions

No. 14-0033/AF. U.S. v. Anthony L.W. Peacock. CCA 38043.  On consideration of the granted issue, 73 M.J. 230 (C.A.A.F. 2014), and the judgment of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals, United States v. Peacock, No. 38043 (A.F. Ct. Crim. App. Apr. 26, 2013), we conclude that the appointment of Laurence Soybel as an appellate military judge was unconstitutional and fundamentally deficient, and that therefore the issue of his participation on the panel was not waived by a failure to object. See United States v. Jones, 74 M.J. ___ (C.A.A.F. 2015).  Therefore, it is ordered that the judgment of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is reversed, and the record is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Air Force for remand to the Court of Criminal Appeals for a new review under Article 66, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 866 (2012), before a properly constituted panel of that court.

Ct. Crim. App. Jul. 22, 2013), we conclude that the appointment of Laurence Soybel as an appellate military judge was unconstitutional and fundamentally deficient, and that therefore the issue of his participation on the panel was not waived by a failure to object. See United States v. Jones, 74 M.J. ___ (C.A.A.F. 2015).  Therefore, it is ordered that the judgment of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is reversed, and the record is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Air Force for remand to the Court of Criminal Appeals for a new review under Article 66, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 866 (2012), before a properly constituted panel of that court.

Crim. App. Aug. 19, 2013), we conclude that the appointment of Laurence Soybel as an appellate military judge was unconstitutional and fundamentally deficient, and that therefore the issue of his participation on the panel was not waived by a failure to object.

Crim. App. Jul. 24, 2013), we conclude that the appointment of Laurence Soybel as an appellate military judge was unconstitutional and fundamentally deficient, and that therefore the issue of his participation on the panel was not waived by a failure to object. See United States v. Jones, 74 M.J. ___ (C.A.A.F. 2015).  Therefore, it is ordered that the judgment of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is reversed, and the record is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Air Force for remand to the Court of Criminal Appeals for a new review under Article 66, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 866 (2012), before a properly constituted panel of that court.

Petitions for Grant of Review - Summary Dispositions

No. 15-0291/NA. U.S. v. Kevin P. Shippee. CCA 860285.  On consideration of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Navy-Marine Corps Court of Military Review, it is ordered that said petition is hereby dismissed.

Appeals – Summary Dispositions

No. 15-0289/AF. U.S. v. Roy A. Bowser. CCA 2014-08.  On consideration of the certificate for review (74 M.J. __ (C.A.A.F. Jan. 5, 2015)), and the briefs of the parties and amicus curiae, we conclude that the military judge did not abuse his discretion in dismissing all charges and specifications with prejudice following the Government's refusal to comply with the military judge's order to produce trial counsel's witness interview notes for an in camera inspection. "[A] judge is ultimately responsible for the control of his or her court and the trial proceedings," and "[p]roper case management during a trial, necessary for the protection of an accused's due process rights and the effective administration of justice, is encompassed within that responsibility." United States v. Vargas, 74 M.J. 1, 8 (C.A.A.F. 2014). Because a judge has broad discretion and a range of choices in crafting a remedy to cure discovery violations and ensure a fair trial, this Court will not reverse so long as his or her decision remains within that range. See United States v. Douglas, 68 M.J. 349, 354 (C.A.A.F. 2010); United States v. Gore, 60 M.J. 178, 187 (C.A.A.F. 2004). In this case, the military judge's decision, as affirmed by the Court of Criminal Appeals, was within that range. Accordingly, it is ordered that the certified questions are answered in the negative, and the decision of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is affirmed.

Orders Granting Petition for Review

No. 15-0377/NA. U.S. v. Nestor L. Suazo-Lopez. CCA 201300463.  On consideration of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals, it is ordered that said petition is hereby granted on the following issue:

THE CONVENING AUTHORITY ISSUED AN INSTRUCTION THAT LIMITED COURT-MARTIAL MEMBERS NOMINATIONS TO PERSONNEL IN PAY-GRADES OF E-6 AND ABOVE. THE LOWER COURT ASSUMED THIS SYSTEMATIC EXCLUSION OF PERSONNEL WAS ERROR, BUT HARMLESS. SHOULD THIS COURT SET ASIDE APPELLANT'S CONVICTIONS PURSUANT TO UNITED STATES v. KIRKLAND DUE TO THE UNRESOLVED APPEARANCE OF UNFAIRNESS?

No briefs will be filed under Rule 25.
