Pleas of accused; effect of plea of guilty
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If an accused arraigned before a
court-martial makes an irregular pleading, or after a plea of guilty sets up
matter inconsistent with the plea, or if it appears that the accused has
entered the plea of guilty improvidently or through lack of understanding of
its meaning and effect, or if the accused fails or refuses to plead, a plea of
not guilty shall be entered in the record, and the court shall proceed as
though the accused had pleaded not guilty.
2. With respect to any charge or
specification to which a plea of guilty has been made by the accused and
accepted by the military judge or by a court-martial without a military judge, a
finding of guilty of the charge or specification may be entered immediately
without vote. This finding constitutes the finding of the court unless the plea
of guilty is withdrawn before the announcement of the sentence, in which event
the proceedings must continue as though the accused had pleaded not guilty.
