Town hall

Global Military Justice Reform's third Zoom town hall will be held at 9:00 a.m., New York time, on Monday, May 4. This is part of our continuing effort to make participation feasible for contributors and friends in as many time zones as possible. If there is anything specific you would like to have discussed at the meeting, please post a comment here.

Postscript: Pascal Lévesque has kindly offered to make some remarks about summary courts-martial in India in light of a recent op-ed by two scholars in that country. In no particular order, here are some other topics that may come up at this or, more likely, future town halls:
  • What will be the "New Normal" for Military Justice after COVID-19?
  • Politicization of military justice
  • The Lyons Report on possible changes in the UK military justice system
  • Status of US proposals to transfer disposition power to independent prosecutors, including the submission by the § 540F Shadow Advisory Report Group of Experts (SARGE)
  • Jury/panel/board unanimity after Ramos v. Louisiana
If you have a suggestion for a town hall agenda item, please comment here or email the Editor. If you would like to kick off the discussion, please so indicate.
