46-1125. Unlawfully influencing action of court. (1) No person subject to this code may censure, reprimand, or admonish the court or any member, military judge, or counsel thereof, with respect to the findings or sentence adjudged by the court or with respect to any other exercise of its or his functions in the conduct of the proceeding.

(2) No person subject to this code may attempt to coerce or, by any unauthorized means, influence the action of a court-martial or any member thereof in reaching the findings or sentence on any case, or the action of any convening, approving, or reviewing authority with respect to his judicial acts.

(3) In the preparation of an effectiveness, fitness, or efficiency report or any other report or document used in whole or in part for the purpose of determining whether a member of the military is qualified to be advanced in grade, or in determining the assignment or transfer of a member or in determining whether a member should be retained, no person subject to this code may, in preparing such report: (a) consider or evaluate performance of duty of any member as a member of a court-martial; or (b) give a less favorable rating or evaluation of any member because of the zeal with which such member, as counsel, represented any accused before a court-martial. This section shall not apply to evaluations made by any staff judge advocate on the performance of his personnel.
