APPENDIX A11
FORMS OF SENTENCES
a. Announcement of sentence
See R.C.M. 1007.
In announcing the sentence, the president, or, in cases tried
				by military judge alone, the military judge should announce:
"(Name of accused), this court-martial sentences you
				________."
The sentence should now be announced following one of the forms
				contained in b below, or any necessary modification or combination thereof.
				Each of the forms of punishment prescribed in b are separate, that is, the
				adjudging of one form of punishment is not contingent upon any other punishment
				also being adjuged. The forms in c, however, may be combined and modified so
				long as the punishment adjudged is not forbidden by the code and does not
				exceed the maximum authorized by New York State Military Law, Sections 130.18,
				130.19 and 130.20(c)  in the particular case being tried. In announcing a
				sentence consisting of combined punishments, the president or military judge
				may, for example, state:
"To be dishonorably discharged from the service, to be confined
				for one year, to forfeit all pay and allowances, and to be reduced to Private
				E-1;" or
"To be discharged from the service with a bad-conduct
				discharge, to be confined for six months, and to forfeit $35.00 pay per month
				for six months;" or
"To be dismissed from the service, to be confined for one year,
				and to forfeit all pay and allowances;" or
"To perform hard labor without confinement for one month and to
				forfeit $25.00 pay per month for one month."
b. Single punishment forms

Commander
Instructions for Transmittal of Charges
Letter of Transmittal
A letter of transmittal is used to forward the Charge Sheet and
				allied papers to a superior commander for disposition when the recommended
				disposition is a General or Special Court-Martial. This letter is usually a
				local form which contains information about the accused and the commander's
				specific recommendation for disposition of the charges. The commander makes a
				personal recommendation as to the type of court-martial, keeping in mind the
				punishment authorized by the type of court-martial recommended. When making a
				recommendation for the disposition of the charges, the commander should
				consider and relate in the letter of transmittal information concerning the
				accused's background and character of military service, and a description of
				any unusual circumstances in the case. The commander should also include
				consideration of the nature of the offenses, and whether the accused should be
				eliminated from the service. When making a recommendation as to disposition,
				the commander must keep in mind that charges against an accused should be tried
				by the lowest court which has power to adjudge an appropriate and adequate
				punishment. The commander must personally sign the letter of transmittal and
				attach one copy to each set of the Charge Sheet and allied papers.

APPENDIX A15
SUGGESTED GUIDE FOR CONDUCT OF ARMY NATIONAL
GUARD NON-JUDICIAL PUNISHMENT PROCEEDINGS [FN*]
Section I. Notification
CO: As your commander, I have disciplinary powers under Section
				130.15  of the State Military Code. I have received a report that you violated
				the State Military Code, and I am considering imposing non- judicial
				punishment. This is not a formal trial like a court-martial. As a record of
				these proceedings I will use DMNA Form 1057. I now hand you this form. Read
				items 1 and 2. Item 1 states the offense(s) you are reported to have committed
				and item 2 lists the rights you have in these proceedings. You are not required
				to make any statement or provide any information concerning the alleged
				offense(s). If you do, it may be used against you in these proceedings or in a
				trial by court-martial. You have the right to consult with a lawyer as stated
				in item 2.
1. Note for CO:
Wait for the member to read items 1 and 2 DMNA Form 1057. Allow
				him or her to retain a copy of the form until the proceedings are finished and
				you have either imposed punishment or decided not to impose it.
CO: Do you understand item 1? Do you understand the offense(s)
				you are reported to have committed?
M (Member): (Yes) (No)
2. Note for CO:
If the member does not understand the offense(s), explain the
				offense(s) to him or her.
CO: Do you understand item 2? Do you have any questions about
				your rights in these proceedings?
M: (Yes) (No)
3. Note for CO:
If the member does not understand his or her rights, explain
				them in greater detail. If the member asks a question you cannot answer, recess
				the proceedings. You probably can find the answer in one of the following
				sources:
a) Article 15, UCMJ;
b) Part V, N.Y. MCM.
If you cannot find the answer in one of these sources, contact
				your JA office.
CO: There are some decisions you have to make:
a. You must decide whether you want to present witnesses or
				submit other evidence in defense, extenuation, and/or mitigations.
(1) Evidence in defense are facts showing that you did not
				commit the offense(s) stated in item 1. Even if you cannot present any evidence
				in defense, you can still present evidence in extenuation or mitigation.
(2) Evidence in extenuation are circumstances surrounding the
				offense, showing that the offense was not very serious.
(3) Evidence in mitigation are facts about you, showing that
				you are a good soldier and that you deserve light punishment.
b. You can make a statement and request to have a spokesperson
				appear with you and speak on your behalf. I will interview any available
				witness and consider any evidence you think I should examine.
c. Finally, you must decide whether you wish to request that
				the proceedings be open to the public. Do you understand the decisions you have
				to make?
M: (Yes) (No)
CO: If after you have presented your evidence, I am convinced
				that you committed the offense, I could then punish you. The maximum punishment
				I could impose on you would be____________.
4. Note to CO:
See Table 4-1, Part V, N.Y. MCM for maximum
				punishments.____________
CO: As item 2 points out, you have a right to talk to an
				attorney before you make your decisions. A military lawyer whom you can talk to
				free of charge is located at ________. Would you like to talk to an attorney
				before you make your decisions?
M: (Yes) (No)
5. Note to CO:
If the member desires to talk to an attorney, arrange for the
				member to consult an attorney.
The member should be encouraged to consult the attorney
				promptly. Inform the member that consultation with an attorney may be by
				telephone. The member should be advised that he or she is to notify you if any
				difficulty is encountered in consulting an attorney.
CO: You now have 48 hours to think about what you should do in
				this case. You may advise me of your decision at any time within the 48-hour
				period. If you refuse to sign that part of DMNA Form 1057 indicating your
				decision on these matters, I can proceed to impose punishment upon you without
				your consent. You are dismissed.
6. Note to CO:
At this point, the proceedings should be recessed unless the
				service member affirmatively indicates that he or she has made a decision and
				does not want additional time or to consult with an attorney. In the event the
				member does not make a decision within the specified time or refuses to
				complete or sign item 3 of DMNA Form 1057, see paragraph 3-6f. When you resume
				the proceedings, begin at item 3, DMNA Form 1057.
CO: An open proceeding means that the proceeding is open to the
				public. If the hearing is closed, only you, I, designated members of the chain
				of command, available witnesses and a spokesperson if designated, will be
				present. Do you request an open proceeding?
M: (Yes) (No)
CO: Initial block 3(a) and (b) indicating your decision. Do you
				want to submit any evidence showing that you did not commit the offense(s), or
				explaining why you committed the offense(s), or any other information about
				yourself that you would like me to know? Do you wish to have any witnesses
				testify, including witnesses who would testify about your good past military
				record or character?
M: (Yes) (No)
CO: Now initial block 3(c) indicating your decision, and sign
				and date the form in the space provided under that item.
7. Note to CO:
a. Wait until the member initials the blocks and signs and
				dates the form. If the answers to all the questions are no, you may proceed to
				impose punishment.
b. If the answer regarding witnesses and evidence is yes, and
				the member is prepared to present his or her evidence immediately, proceed as
				follows. Consider the evidence presented. If the evidence persuades you that
				you should not punish the member, terminate the proceedings, inform the member,
				and destroy all copies of DMNA Form 1057. If you are convinced beyond a
				reasonable doubt that the member committed the offense(s) and deserves to be
				punished, proceed to impose punishment.
c. If the member needs additional time to gather his or her
				evidence, give the member a reasonable period of time to gather the evidence.
				Tell the member when the proceedings will resume and recess the
				proceedings.
d. If someone else conducted the notification proceedings, the
				imposing commander should conduct the remainder of the proceedings. When you
				resume the proceedings, consider the member's evidence. Insure that the member
				has the opportunity he or she deserves to present any evidence. Ask the member,
				"Do you have any further evidence to present?" If the evidence persuades you
				that you should not punish the member, terminate the proceedings, inform the
				member of your decision, and destroy all copies of DMNA Form 1057. If you are
				still convinced that the member committed the offense(s) and deserves to be
				punished, impose punishment.
Section II. Imposition of Punishment

				committed the offense(s). I impose the following punishment: (Announce
				punishment).

				appeal, if you believe that you should not have been punished at all, or that
				the punishment is too severe. Any appeal should be submitted within 30 days. An
				appeal submitted after that time may be rejected. Even if you appeal, the
				punishment is effective today (unless the imposing commander sets another
				date). Once you submit your appeal it must be acted upon by (title and
				organization of next superior) expeditiously. Otherwise, any punishment
				involving deprivation of liberty (correctional custody, restriction or extra
				duty) will be interrupted pending the decision on the appeal. Do you understand
				your right to appeal?

				matters with you, item 6 will not be completed until after you have obtained
				all the additional material you wish to have considered on appeal. When you
				have obtained this material, return with it by ________ (specify a date 30 days
				from the date punishment is imposed) and complete item 6, by initialing the box
				and signing the blank below. After you complete item 6, I will send DMNA Form

				any remedial action)"; or
"2. In deciding your appeal, I note your failure to submit
				matters in support of your appeal, within the required time."
3. The following language, as applicable, may be used in item
				3:

"3. The following action is taken on your appeal: ________" The
				appellate authority may take whatever remedial action he deems appropriate and
				which is authorized under this regulation in paragraph 6, and may also sustain
				the finding of commission of the offense notwithstanding the remedial action
				taken, if sustaining such finding is consistent therewith. If such remedial
				action is taken, the appeal is granted to that extent. NYANG/SJA Form 5 should
				be used as a guide for the language appropriate to the remedial action
				taken.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF EXTENSION OF
SUSPENSION PERIOD OF NON-JUDICIAL
PUNISHMENT
1. This action will only be used, if during the time punishment
				is suspended in one nonjudicial punishment action, the offender is AWOL, and
				the Commander suspending the punishment does not desire to bring a vacation
				action and no vacation action has otherwise commenced on the recommendation of
				another person for the(se) alleged AWOL(s). Also, if, no vacation is commenced,
				but a new nonjudicial punishment is commenced for the(se) AWOL(s), any
				punishment imposed for such new offense(s) may not include an extension of a
				current suspension. This is based on the necessity for separate actions for
				separate offenses which also prohibits a new nonjudicial punishment action from
				vacating a current suspension as part of the punishment imposed in such new
				action, in lieu of a vacation action.
2. Use additional indorsements as necessary.
