Petition for Grant of Review - Summary Disposition

 

No. 23-0004/AF. U.S. v. Humphrey Daniels III. CCA 39407. On further consideration of the granted issue, 83 M.J. (C.A.A.F. 2023), and in view of United States v. Harrington, 83 M.J. (C.A.A.F. 2023), it is ordered that the decision of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is affirmed as to findings but set aside as to sentence. The case is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Air Force for remand to that court for a new review under Article 66(c), Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 866(c) (2016).  In its review, the AFCCA should consider whether any of Appellant's challenges to the delivery of the unsworn victim statement during the sentencing phase of his court-martial have been waived, forfeited, or preserved, and address them accordingly.  See United States v. Steele, 83 M.J. 188, 191 (C.A.A.F. 2023) (explaining that "[w]hether an issue is waived or forfeited is an issue of law that this Court could decide" but concluding that it was preferable to "remand the case to allow the [CCA] to rule on th[at] question in the first instance").
