Question? Does this affect the trailer cases (listed in the June DJ)?

So the CAAF places the blame for its failure to follow statute at the feet of the parties for failing to cite that statute in their pleadings?

That's not how I read the order. The order is explaining the extraordinary cause for withdrawing the mandate. The parties seem to have both fallen on their sword, which demonstrates good cause. Needless to say, it's not a great look for anyone when this happens. But everyone makes mistakes, and I credit everyone involved for doing the right thing for the integrity of the system.

Oh heck, even SCOTUS blows it now and then on a military justice issue!! See, Kennedy v. Louisiana, 554 U.S. 945 (2008)(Mem.) And it may have been Dwight Sullivan who pointed out there mistake . . . if my memory is correct. Comments are closed.
