While I support the notion of anonymous posting n the specific circumstances of this blog, pseudonymous posts are far better because then you can get a sense over time where a particular poster is coming from and, maybe more importantly, you can follow the commentary in a long thread by being able to figure out when two anonymous posts are by the same person as opposed to two unrelated posts.John O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014476389355562158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-90235134322718408112008-06-30T15:54:00.000-04:002008-06-30T15:54:00.000-04:00Looks to me as if the Air Force Appellate Defense ...Looks to me as if the Air Force Appellate Defense Division could use some remedial training on how to draft issue statements.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-61505324129861023312008-06-30T15:25:00.000-04:002008-06-30T15:25:00.000-04:00When CAAFlog first floated the idea of prohibiting...When CAAFlog first floated the idea of prohibiting anonymous comments, or otherwise regulating the comments, I opposed any change. <BR/><BR/>Wading through multiple "anonymous" comments, however, especially when several people are conversing, does get pretty confusing. Why don't some of you regular anonymous commenters just create a Google identity? You can do this anonymously via gmail. Works great. Don't cost nuthin'.<BR/><BR/>Alternatively, use a consistent pseudonym that you enter by clicking on the Name/URL option. It makes it easier for other readers to keep track of who's saying what.<BR/><BR/>If there's some interface problem between blogger and your gov't internet system that requires selecting the anonymous option, at least sign your posts with the witty pseudonym of your choice. There are plenty of dead flag officers to choose from!Cloudesley Shovellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13344314546798687667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-389795985949911562008-06-30T14:25:00.000-04:002008-06-30T14:25:00.000-04:00Anon 1250 - CAAF did not indicate that the case wa...Anon 1250 - CAAF did not indicate that the case was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction - no doubt, it found the case untimely under Tamez.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-79215963832056610772008-06-30T14:16:00.000-04:002008-06-30T14:16:00.000-04:00if caaf was going to change anything, it would hav...if caaf was going to change anything, it would have held this case as a rodriguez trailer - the chinese tea leaves say that this case was dismissed because there was no good cause under tamezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-63049476085204541192008-06-30T12:50:00.000-04:002008-06-30T12:50:00.000-04:00Anon 0712: I don't follow, how is dismissing Perso...Anon 0712: I don't follow, how is dismissing Person an indicator that CAAF will rule for Appellant in Rodriguez, or that Tamez is still good law?

On 19 December 2006, NMCCA affirmed Petty Officer Person's conviction and sentence (which included LWOP with confinement in excess of 60 years suspended for 20 years). United States v. Person, No. NMCCA 200600076 (N-M. Ct. Crim. App. Dec. 19, 2006). More than 16 months later, a petition for grant of review was filed in his case. United States v. Person, __ M.J. ___, No. 08-0534/NA (C.A.A.F. May 8, 2008). And then on Monday, CAAF granted the government's motion to dismiss his petition. United States v. Person, __ M.J. ___, No. 08-0534/NA (C.A.A.F. June 23, 2008). <BR/><BR/>Based on that procedural history, the petition was probably dismissed as untimely. But, again, I invite those with actual knowledge to fill us in.Dwight Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11657981110237418710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34853720.post-68620056933846693652008-06-29T17:43:00.000-04:002008-06-29T17:43:00.000-04:00What was the dismissal of US v.
