SUMMARY DISPOSITIONS
No. 14-0003/AF. U.S. v. Allen K. HOHENSTEIN. CCA 37965. On consideration of the petition for grant of
review of the decision of the United States Air
Force Court of Criminal Appeals, we conclude that the wrongful sexual contact
offense (Specification 2 of Charge I) should be dismissed. The government conceded that the wrongful
sexual contact offense was charged for exigencies of proof in case the panel
did not convict Appellant of rape (Specification 1 of Charge I). Because the panel returned guilty findings
for both specifications and the government agreed that these specifications
were charged for exigencies of proof, it was incumbent on the military judge to
dismiss the wrongful sexual contact specification. See United States v. Elespuru, 73 M.J.
326, 329-30 (C.A.A.F. 2014). Because the military judge did not dismiss
this specification, we dismiss and set aside the finding of guilty for the
wrongful sexual contact specification.
However, because the military judge merged Specifications 1 and 2 of
Charge I as one offense for sentencing purposes and instructed the panel
accordingly, we are convinced Appellant was not prejudiced for sentencing. See id. at
330. Accordingly, it is ordered that said petition is hereby granted on the
following issue specified by the Court:
WHETHER APPELLANT'S CONVICTION UNDER SPECIFICATION
2 OF CHARGE I SHOULD BE SET ASIDE AND THIS SPECIFICATION DISMISSED WHERE THE
GOVERNMENT CONCEDED SPECIFICATION 2 WAS CHARGED FOR EXIGENCIES OF PROOF WITH
SPECIFICATION 1.
The decision of the
United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is reversed as to
Specification 2 of Charge I, but is affirmed in all other respects. The finding of guilty as to Specification 2
of Charge I is set aside, and Specification 2 of Charge I is dismissed. [See also ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW

No. 14-0638/AF. U.S. v. Jonathan T. DANIEL. CCA 38322. On consideration
of the petition for grant of review of the decision of the United States Air
Force Court of Criminal Appeals, it is ordered that said petition is hereby
granted, and, the decision of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal
Appeals is affirmed.* [See also ORDERS GRANTING PETITION FOR REVIEW
this date.]
* It is noted that the military judge neglected to seal
the portion of the record and the exhibits pertinent to an MRE
412 closed hearing. Accordingly, the
Clerk is directed to seal Appellate Exhibits I-IV and pages 11-46 of the
transcript.
