2013 Nevada Revised Statutes
Chapter 412 - State Militia
NRS 412.2879 - Right of accused to demand trial by court-martial; limitations.
An accused facing nonjudicial punishment has the right to demand a trial by court-martial only if the commanding officer who initiated the proceeding for nonjudicial punishment elects to impose restraint-of-freedom punishments. If, before an offer of nonjudicial punishment is made, the commanding officer elects not to impose restraint-of-freedom punishments, the accused has no right to demand a trial by court-martial. If the commanding officer does not advise the accused serviceman or servicewoman of his or her right to reject the nonjudicial punishment and demand a trial by court-martial on initiation of the nonjudicial punishment action, the commanding officer thereby waives the right to retain the restraint-of-freedom punishments.
