Original sentence: Another area where a Military Police Officer may have greater authority is when Congress or the President invokes one of the many exceptions to the Posse Comitatus Act such as maybe needed in a national emergency or rebellion.Despite many challenges the federal courts have ruled many times that both Civilian and Military members are exactly the same and in so comprise "Military Law Enforcement" therefore the Posse Comitatus Act applies to both.These exceptions when invoked apply only to military members and not the civilian officers
