This is because the legal office is responsible for ensuring that all legal requirements and procedures are followed in the discharge process. They review the request to ensure that it is in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and provide legal advice and guidance to the commander. This review is important to ensure that the discharge request is valid and legally sound.

    • B.

      90 days

    • C.

      180 days

      190 days

    Correct Answer
    C. 180 days
    Explanation
    A commander is not allowed to recommend an entry level involuntary discharge after 180 days of continuous active duty. This means that if a service member has been on active duty for 180 days or more, the commander cannot initiate the process for involuntary discharge. This policy is likely in place to ensure that service members are given a sufficient amount of time to adjust to military life and demonstrate their ability to meet the requirements and expectations of their position before any potential discharge is considered.

    When acting as an assistant to the recorder in an administrative discharge board proceeding, it is important to be under direct supervision of an attorney at all times. This is because the attorney will provide guidance and ensure that the proceedings are conducted in accordance with legal requirements.

      Beyond a reasonable doubt

    • B.

      Preponderance of the evidence

      Clear and convincing evidence

    • D.

      No standard of proof for discharge boards

    Correct Answer
    B. Preponderance of the evidence
    Explanation
    In an administrative discharge board proceeding, the standard of proof when acting as the recorder is "preponderance of the evidence." This means that the evidence presented must show that it is more likely than not that the allegations or charges against the individual are true. The burden of proof is not as high as "beyond a reasonable doubt," which is the standard used in criminal cases, but it still requires a greater weight of evidence in favor of the allegations. "Clear and convincing evidence" is a higher standard than preponderance of the evidence and is typically used in civil cases involving serious consequences.

The MAJCOM level of command ensures that the decision-making process is fair and consistent across all units under its jurisdiction.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation

    If the commander refuses to provide redress for an Article 138, UCMJ complaint, the next option for the member is to submit the complaint directly to the officer exercising GCM jurisdiction. This is because the officer exercising General Court-Martial (GCM) jurisdiction has the authority to address and resolve the complaint at a higher level. This option allows for a more formal and thorough investigation into the complaint, ensuring that it is properly addressed and resolved.

    Explanation
    An accident investigation is the correct answer because it involves the process of preserving evidence for various purposes such as claims, litigation, disciplinary actions, administrative proceedings, and other actions. This type of investigation is conducted to determine the cause of an accident, analyze contributing factors, and prevent similar incidents in the future. It aims to gather evidence, interview witnesses, examine physical evidence, and reconstruct the events leading up to the accident. The collected evidence and findings can then be used in legal proceedings or to implement safety measures and prevent future accidents.

The involvement of a MAJCOM may require additional documentation for investigation, analysis, and reporting purposes, hence the need for extra copies of the report.

    • A.

      The information is for a tort claim

    • B.

    • D.

      It is for privileged information protected by the attorney-client relationship

    Correct Answer
    D. It is for privileged information protected by the attorney-client relationship
    Explanation
    A private citizen's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request may be denied if it is for privileged information protected by the attorney-client relationship. This means that if the requested information falls under the attorney-client privilege, which is a legal protection that keeps communications between an attorney and their client confidential, the FOIA request can be denied. This is because the attorney-client privilege is recognized as an important aspect of the legal system and allows clients to freely communicate with their attorneys without fear of disclosure.

    Correct Answer
    D. Privacy Act (PA) request
    Explanation
    If you receive a request for information regarding records, forms, and other written or permanent documents that pertain to an individual, you have received a Privacy Act (PA) request. The Privacy Act of 1974 is a law that protects the privacy of individuals by regulating the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information by federal agencies. It allows individuals to access and request amendments to their own records held by federal agencies. Therefore, a request for such information would fall under the Privacy Act (PA) request category.

If someone requests information regarding government records, it means they are exercising their rights under the FOIA to obtain information from the government. The FOIA promotes transparency and accountability by allowing the public to access government records, subject to certain exemptions and limitations.

      Personal

    • C.

      Confidential

    Explanation
    Privileged information refers to communication between two parties that is protected by a legal privilege, such as attorney-client privilege or doctor-patient confidentiality. This type of information cannot be disclosed or made available for use in litigation without the consent of the party holding the privilege. Therefore, privileged information will not be made available for use in litigation.

    • D.

      Approve the request

    Correct Answer
    C. Consult the US Attorney
    Explanation
    The option "Consult the US Attorney" is not an SJA (Staff Judge Advocate) option when receiving a request for information. SJA options typically involve consulting relevant divisions or authorities within the organization, such as the Operations & International Law Division or forwarding the request to the appropriate authority to deny. Consulting the US Attorney is not mentioned as one of the available options, suggesting that it is not a part of the SJA's role in handling such requests.

This is important because without obtaining consent, the case cannot proceed in the Magistrate Court. Once consent is obtained, the other steps such as drafting the information, putting a cover sheet on the file, and requesting a copy of the report of investigation can be followed. However, obtaining consent is the initial and crucial step in the process.

This means that the magistrate will determine and announce the punishment or penalty for the defendant's guilty plea. The other options, such as setting a date for sentencing, assigning a public defender, or requesting a pre-sentencing report, are not applicable in this specific scenario.

The tenant command is responsible for the administrative matters and operations of the specific unit, including the discharge of its members. The host command's MAJCOM may have overall authority over the installation or base where the tenant unit is located, but when it comes to the administrative actions within the tenant unit, the tenant command has jurisdiction.
