  2. Article 7. Code of Military Justice
  3. Part 7. Trial Procedure

§ 130.54. Record of trial. (a) Each general court-martial shall keep

a separate record of the proceedings in each case brought before it, and

the record shall be authenticated by the signature of the military

judge. If the record cannot be authenticated by the military judge by

reason of his death, disability, or absence, it shall be authenticated

by the signature of the trial counsel or by that of a member if the

trial counsel is unable to authenticate it by reason of his death,

disability, or absence. In a court-martial consisting of only a military

judge the record shall be authenticated by the court reporter under the

same conditions which would impose such a duty on a member under this

subdivision. If the proceedings have resulted in an acquittal of all

charges and specifications or, if not affecting a general or flag

officer, in a sentence not including discharge and not in excess of that

which may otherwise be adjudged by a special court-martial, the record

shall contain such matters as may be prescribed by regulations issued

pursuant to this chapter.

(b) Each special and summary court-martial shall keep a separate

record of the proceedings in each case, which record shall contain such

matter and be authenticated in such manner as may be required by

regulations issued pursuant to this chapter.

(c) A copy of the record of the proceedings of each general and

special court-martial shall be given to the accused as soon as

authenticated.
