Court of Military Commission Review

The Court of Military Commission Review (CMCR) is a U.S. military court that reviews decisions made by military commissions, which are special courts established to try certain offenses related to terrorism and war. It ensures that the proceedings are fair and that the rulings comply with the law. The CMCR examines issues like jurisdiction, evidence, and legal standards. If a defendant believes their trial was unjust, they can appeal to the CMCR for a re-evaluation of their case. Essentially, it acts as a higher court to uphold justice within military legal proceedings.
