(a) Each military court shall maintain a separate record of the proceedings in each case brought
before it. Each record shall be authenticated by the signature of the military judge.
(b)
(i) If the record cannot be authenticated by the military judge due to death, disability, or
absence, it shall be authenticated by the signature of the trial counsel.

(ii) If the trial counsel is unable to authenticate due to death, disability, or absence, a member of
the court panel shall authenticate the record by signature.
(c) In a court of only a military judge, the record shall be authenticated by the court reporter under
the same conditions that a member of a court would authenticate under this section:
(i) if the proceedings have resulted in an acquittal of all charges and specifications; or
(ii) if the proceedings are not affecting a general or flag officer, for a sentence that does not
include a discharge and is not in excess of that which may be prescribed by regulations of
the governor.
(2) A copy of the record of the proceedings of each court shall be given to the accused as soon as
it is authenticated.
(3) The expense in preparing and transmitting the record shall be by regulations prescribed by the
governor or the adjutant general.
