Time Limit on Charges
I have been in a legal mess for over a year. Nothing has really been done about it. I did nothing wrong really, it is the command's error on the wording of the rule. I refused NJP. I was wondering if there was a time limit on them bring me up on charges and making something happen?
Re: Time Limit on Charges
Legally, then can wait up to five years before bringing charges. However, as a practical matter, if they have not brought charges to a court-martial in over a year, it may be unlikely that they would do so now. Usually, they move promptly on cases such as this as they are in a rush to get the matter resolved.
If they have not taken any court-martial or separation action against you in a year, my guess would be that they probably do not intend to do so unless you give them a reason such as by committing a new offense, etc. Hopefully, nothing will happen and this will all go away.
Feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions.
