Before HUTCHISON, TANG, and LAWRENCE
Appellate Military Judges
United States v. Greene, No. 201800285
PER CURIAM:
After careful consideration of the record, submitted without assignment of
error, we have determined that the approved findings and sentence are cor-
rect in law and fact and that no error materially prejudicial to Appellant’s
substantial rights occurred. Articles 59(a) and 66(c), UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. §§
859(a), 866(c). However, we note that the court-martial order (CMO) does not
accurately reflect that Specification 1 of Charge I alleged an attempted sexu-
al assault of a child vice an attempted sexual abuse of a child. Although we
find no prejudice from this scrivener’s error regarding a specification that
was withdrawn and dismissed, the appellant is entitled to have court-martial
records that correctly reflect the results of his proceeding. United States v.
Crumpley,
49 M.J. 538, 539 (N-M. Ct. Crim. App. 1998). Accordingly, the con-
vening authority shall issue a supplemental CMO correctly reflecting the of-
fense alleged in Specification 1 of Charge I.
The findings and sentence as approved by the convening authority are
AFFIRMED.
