Board of Review

The Board of Review in military justice is a panel that examines court-martial cases to ensure fairness and legal correctness. When a service member is convicted, they can appeal the decision. The Board reviews the case’s records, the evidence presented, and the application of military law. Their role is to identify any legal errors or issues that may have affected the outcome. Ultimately, they can affirm the original decision, reverse it, or recommend a new trial. This process helps maintain the integrity of military justice by providing an additional layer of oversight.
