§ 5924.19. Jurisdiction of special courts-martial.
 

Subject to section 5924.17 of the Revised Code, special courts-martial shall have jurisdiction to try persons subject to this code for any non-capital offense for which they may be punished under this code. A special court-martial may adjudge any punishment a general court-martial may adjudge, except death, dishonorable discharge, dismissal, confinement for more than six months, hard labor without confinement for more than three months, forfeiture of pay exceeding two-thirds pay per month, or forfeiture of pay for more than six months. A bad-conduct discharge may not be adjudged unless a complete record of the proceedings and testimony has been made, counsel having the qualifications prescribed under division (B) of section 5924.27 of the Revised Code was detailed to represent the accused, and a military judge was detailed to the trial. In any case in which a military judge was not detailed to the trial, except when due to physical conditions or military exigencies, the convening authority shall make a written statement, to be appended to the record, stating the reason or reasons a military judge could not be detailed.
