Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
In Nov. 2001, Pres. Bush issued a Mil. Order (MO) authorizing trial by mil. commission (MC) of certain non-citizens suspected of participating in the war against terrorism. The Supreme Court struck down MC established pursuant to the MO. To permit MC to go forward, Congress approved the MC Act of 2006 (MCA). After taking office, Pres. Obama took action to suspend the operation of MC pending a review of all Guantanamo detentions for the purpose of assessing options for the lawful disposition of each detainee. This report provides a background and analysis of MC rules under the MCA. It reviews the history of the implementation of MC in the ¿global war on terrorism¿ and provides an overview of the procedural safeguards provided in the MCA.

Court-Martial: How Military Justice Has Shaped America from the Revolution to 9/11 and Beyond
Author: Chris Bray
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393243419
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
A timely, provocative account of how military justice has shaped American society since the nation’s beginnings. Historian and former soldier Chris Bray tells the sweeping story of military justice from the earliest days of the republic to contemporary arguments over using military courts to try foreign terrorists or soldiers accused of sexual assault. Stretching from the American Revolution to 9/11, Court-Martial recounts the stories of famous American court-martials, including those involving President Andrew Jackson, General William Tecumseh Sherman, Lieutenant Jackie Robinson, and Private Eddie Slovik. Bray explores how encounters of freed slaves with the military justice system during the Civil War anticipated the civil rights movement, and he explains how the Uniform Code of Military Justice came about after World War II. With a great eye for narrative, Bray hones in on the human elements of these stories, from Revolutionary-era militiamen demanding the right to participate in political speech as citizens, to black soldiers risking their lives during the Civil War to demand fair pay, to the struggles over the court-martial of Lieutenant William Calley and the events of My Lai during the Vietnam War. Throughout, Bray presents readers with these unvarnished voices and his own perceptive commentary. Military justice may be separate from civilian justice, but it is thoroughly entwined with American society. As Bray reminds us, the history of American military justice is inextricably the history of America, and Court-Martial powerfully documents the many ways that the separate justice system of the armed forces has served as a proxy for America’s ongoing arguments over equality, privacy, discrimination, security, and liberty.

The Department of Defense Rules for Military Commissions: Analysis of Procedural Rules and Comparison With Proposed Legislation and the Uniform Code of Military Justice

Pages : 100
Book Description
The Department of Defense recently announced it has filed formal charges against two of the detainees held at the U.S. Naval Station at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba in connection with the war against terrorism. The two will likely be tried soon by military commission convened pursuant to President Bush's Military Order (M.O.) of November 13, 2001 pertaining to the detention, treatment, and trial of certain non- citizens in the current war against terrorism. The M.O. has been the focus of intense debate both at home and abroad. Critics argued that the tribunals could violate the rights of the accused under the Constitution as well as international law, thereby undercutting the legitimacy of any verdicts rendered by the tribunals. The Administration has responded by publishing a series of military orders and instructions clarifying some of the details. The procedural aspects of the trials are to be controlled by Military Commission Order No. 1 (M.C.O. No. 1"). The Department of Defense has also released two more orders and nine "Military Commission Instructions," which set forth the elements of some crimes that may be tried, establish guidelines for civilian attorneys, and provide other administrative guidance. These rules have been praised as a significant improvement over what might have been permitted under the M.O., but some argue that the enhancements do not go far enough.
