Military Tribunal

A military tribunal is a court established by the military to try individuals for offenses related to military law or national security. These tribunals are typically used in situations where civilian courts may not be appropriate, such as during wartime or in cases involving terrorism. Unlike regular courts, military tribunals have different rules and procedures, which can lead to faster trials and less formal legal representation. They are often used to ensure discipline within the armed forces and to address crimes that threaten national security. Decisions made by military tribunals may also differ from those made in civilian courts.
