Summary Court Martial Appeal

If you’re convicted in a summary court martial proceeding rather than a general court martial, you still have appeal rights. However, these appeal rights are a little bit different. Summary court martial cases are usually much less serious than general court martial appeals. For that reason, the record of the proceedings against you may not be as thorough. It’s important to work with your attorney to get a copy of the existing record, so that you can properly file your appeal.
