If a remitted discharge is the same as a disapproved discharge, then NMCCA would not have had jurisdiction by the time the case got there, as the BCD had been remitted before someone found the ROT hiding in some corporal's bottom left drawer.<BR/><BR/>So the majority's necessary conclusion is that a remitted BCD is the same as a disapproved BCD (they use the term "cancelled") except that it can serve as the basis for Article 66 jurisdiction. Odd case, and I can't say I'm really sure what the right answer is on jurisdiction, but it strikes me as silly that NMCCA was conducting a full-blown Article 66 review where the accused had NO CHANCE of leaving there with a BCD or a year in confinement.John O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08014476389355562158noreply@blogger.com
