Informal Litigation Survey

5/9/2021

3 Comments

 

    What has been your court-martial litigation experience while on active duty? It is OK for civilian attorney's to answer so long as it is for any active duty time only. (I have checked, any answers are anonymous. None of us here can see any metadata, IP addresses, or anything like that from responses--and we'd never share it even if we did have anything to identify you.)

It might be helpful to give more options in the answer fields... for example, the lowest option for rehearings is 5 or more. The vast majority of military counsel have not done 5 or more rehearings.

Scott, something of a deliberate choice was made in the numbers. But, in league with another comment we received, an additional check box is added. Perhaps the results a SWAG already will be less skewed if we have as many people participate who have done a few cases to get a bigger pool of anybody who has done a case.

Cheers.

Mr. Cave and colleagues:

I couldn't complete the survey. First, the terms are a bit ambiguous. You first ask about cases that went to trial. Then you ask, of those, how many were contested. I gather from those two questions that you're including guilty plea cases as "cases tried." For me, that number is way north of 25, thanks to quite a few guilty plea cases. Total cases tried before a factfinder, though, number less than 10. Unfortunately, all the pull-down selections start at 10 or more for those series of questions.

Kind regards,
CS
