Definición

  • Military units use special criminal courts to further discipline and order. The Uniform Code of Military Justice (1950, later amended), based on the U.S. Congress's Article I power to “make rules for the governance … of the land and naval forces,” authorizes the military to create two kinds of military courts: courts-martial and military commissions.
