ONEIL, Jr.  CCA 200602504.  On consideration of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals, said petition is hereby granted, and, the decision of the United States Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals is affirmed.[See also ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW this date.]

 

ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW

 

No. 08-0746/MC.  U.S. v. Joseph P. SCHWEITZER.  CCA 200000755.  Review granted on the following issues:

 

WHETHER APPELLANT, BY PLEADING GUILTY, WAIVED HIS RIGHT TO AN UNBIASED AND IMPARTIAL CONVENING AUTHORITY; ASSUMING THERE WAS NO WAIVER, WHETHER THE CONVENING AUTHORITY WAS DISQUALIFIED DUE TO HIS INVOLVEMENT IN THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE MISHAP, HIS ROLE IN IDENTIFYING THE ORIGINAL CHARGES, AND THE FACT THAT HE TESTIFIED FOR OVER TWO HOURS DURING THE HEARING OF PRETRIAL MOTIONS AS TO MATTERS WHICH CALLED INTO QUESTION HIS CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN APPELLANT'S CASE.

 

WHETHER A GUILTY PLEA TO THE OFFENSES OF ENGAGING IN CONDUCT UNBECOMING AN OFFICER AND GENTLEMAN THROUGH CONSPIRACY TO OBSTRUCT JUSTICE AND OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE IS PROVIDENT WHEN THE "CRIMINAL PROCEEDING" IN ISSUE IS A FOREIGN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION.

 

WHETHER IN UNITED STATES v. ALLENDE, 66 M.J. 142 (C.A.A.F. 2008), THIS COURT SHIFTED THE BURDEN OF PROVING HARMLESSNESS BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT TO APPELLANTS CLAIMING UNREASONABLE DELAY DURING THEIR ARTICLE 66(c), UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE (UCMJ), REVIEW; IF SO, DOES ALLENDE'S BURDEN SHIFTING VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION AND, IF SO, MUST AN APPELLANT RECEIVE MEANINGFUL RELIEF WHERE THE GOVERNMENT FAILED TO REBUT INFORMATION PROVIDED BY APPELLANT AS TO HIS EFFORTS TO PROCURE EMPLOYMENT COMMENSURATE WITH HIS EDUCATION AND JOB EXPERIENCE.  IF ALLENDE'S BURDEN SHIFTING DOES NOT VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION, DID THE LOWER COURT ERR IN FINDING THAT APPELLANT'S PROOF AS TO HIS EFFORTS TO PROCURE EMPLOYMENT COMMENSURATE WITH HIS EDUCATION AND JOB EXPERIENCE WAS INSUFFICIENT BECAUSE HE COULD NOT PRODUCE LETTERS THAT AFFIRMATIVELY STATED THAT HE WAS NOT HIRED BECAUSE HE DID NOT HAVE A DD-214.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ABUSED ITS DISCRETION BY FAILING TO GRANT RELIEF ON SENTENCING FOR ITS SELF-ADMITTED "GROSS NEGLIGENCE" IN FAILING TO PROVIDE APPELLANT AN EXPEDITIOUS ARTICLE 66(c), UCMJ, REVIEW, PARTICULARLY AS TO THE 33 MONTHS THAT ELAPSED PENDING COURT ACTION ON APPELLANT'S MOTION FOR ORAL ARGUMENT.

 

Briefs may be filed under C.A.A.F. R. 25.  Should Appellant determine not to file a brief under C.A.A.F. R. 25, Appellant shall so notify the Court and Appellee within ten days of the date of this order.  Should Appellee determine not to file an answer, Appellee shall so notify the Court and Appellant within ten days of Appellant filing a brief under C.A.A.F. R. 25 or the date upon which Appellant declined to do so.  Should Appellee decline to file an answer, no reply will be permitted.  The parties shall comply with C.A.A.F. R. 24(f) not later than the date upon which Appellee files an answer or declines to do so.1

 

No. 08-0770/MC.  U.S. v. Richard J. ASHBY.  CCA 200000250.  Review granted on the following issues:

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN HOLDING THAT THE EVIDENCE WAS LEGALLY SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT A CONVICTION UNDER ARTICLE 133, UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE (UCMJ), FOR OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE OR CONSPIRACY TO OBSTRUCT JUSTICE.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN AFFIRMING THE MILITARY JUDGE'S DECISION TO EXPAND THE TERM "CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS" TO INCLUDE OBSTRUCTION OF FOREIGN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN AFFIRMING THE MILITARY JUDGE'S DECISION TO PERMIT FAMILIES OF THE VICTIMS OF THE GONDOLA CRASH TO TESTIFY ON SENTENCING.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN SUMMARILY DISMISSING APPELLANT'S ARGUMENT THAT THE MILITARY JUDGE ABUSED HIS DISCRETION WHEN HE DENIED THE DEFENSE MOTION FOR A MISTRIAL BASED ON THE TRIAL COUNSEL'S COMMENTS REFERENCING (1) APPELLANT'S INVOCATION OF HIS RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT TO ITALIAN AUTHORITIES; AND (2) HIS GENERAL RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT WITH RESPECT TO NOT DISCLOSING INFORMATION ABOUT THE VIDEOTAPE.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ABUSED ITS DISCRETION IN NOT FINDING THAT A SENTENCE WHICH INCLUDED SIX MONTHS OF CONFINEMENT AND AN APPROVED DISMISSAL WAS INAPPROPRIATELY SEVERE.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN SUMMARILY DISMISSING APPELLANT'S ARGUMENT THAT THE DESTRUCTION OF THE VIDEOTAPE HAD NO EFFECT ON THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE BECAUSE IT CONTAINED NO MATERIAL EVIDENCE.

 

WHETHER APPELLANT'S DUE PROCESS RIGHTS HAVE BEEN VIOLATED BY THE UNTIMELY POST-TRIAL PROCESSING AND APPELLATE REVIEW OF HIS COURT-MARTIAL.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN FINDING (1) THAT APPELLANT'S CASE WAS NOT TAINTED BY ACTUAL OR APPARENT UNLAWFUL COMMAND INFLUENCE; AND (2) THAT LTGEN PACE WAS NOT DISQUALIFIED TO ACT AS CONVENING AUTHORITY BY VIRTUE OF BEING A TYPE 2 AND TYPE 3 ACCUSER.

 

WHETHER THE LOWER COURT ERRED IN FINDING THAT THE CONVENING AUTHORITY DID NOT ABUSE HIS DISCRETION IN FAILING TO WITHDRAW THE ARTICLE 133, UCMJ, CHARGE FROM REFERRAL TO A GENERAL COURT-MARTIAL ONCE APPELLANT WAS ACQUITTED OF THE ORIGINAL CHARGES.

 

Briefs under C.A.A.F. R. 25 may be filed.  Should Appellant determine not to file a brief under C.A.A.F. R. 25, Appellant shall so notify the Court and Appellee within ten days of the date of this order.  Should Appellee determine not to file an answer, Appellee shall so notify the Court and Appellant within ten days of Appellant filing a brief under C.A.A.F. R. 25 or the date upon which Appellant declined to do so.  Should Appellee decline to file an answer, no reply will be permitted.  The parties shall comply with C.A.A.F. R. 24(f) not later than the date upon which Appellee files an answer or declines to do so.2

WHETHER THE ARMY COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS ERRED IN AFFIRMING APPELLANT'S CONVICTION FOR RAPE WHEN THE MILITARY JUDGE EXCEPTED "ON DIVERS OCCASIONS" FROM THE SPECIFICATION AND DID NOT SPECIFY THE SINGLE OCCASION AS PART OF THE FINDING, BUT THE VICTIM ONLY TESTIFIED TO A SINGLE OCCURRENCE AND THE PARTIES ONLY ARGUED THIS SINGLE OCCASION TO THE MILITARY JUDGE.
