Okla. Stat. tit. 44, § 44-837: Unlawfully influencing action of court

ARTICLE 37. Unlawfully influencing action of court.

A. No authority convening a general, special, or summary court-

martial nor any other commanding officer, or officer serving on the

staff thereof, shall 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 or her functions in the conduct of the

proceeding. No person subject to the Oklahoma Uniform Code of

Military Justice shall attempt to coerce or, by an unauthorized

means, influence the action of the court-martial or any other

military tribunal or any member thereof, in reaching the findings or

sentence in any case, or the action of any convening, approving, or

reviewing authority with respect to his or her judicial acts. The

foregoing provisions of this subsection shall not apply with respect

to:

1. General instructional or informational courses in military

justice if such courses are designed solely for the purpose of

instructing members of a command in the substantive and procedural

aspects of courts-martial; or

2. To statements and instructions given in open court by the

military judge or counsel.

B. 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 state

military forces is qualified to be advanced in grade, or in

determining the assignment or transfer of a member of the state

military forces, or in determining whether a member of the state

military forces should be retained, no person subject to the Code

may, in preparing any such report:

1. Consider or evaluate the performance of duty of any such

member as a member of a court-martial; or

2. Give a less favorable rating or evaluation of any member of

the state military forces because of the zeal with which such

member, as counsel, represented any accused before a court-martial.
