        Appeal from the United States Navy-Marine Corps Trial Judiciary

                                   Military Judge:
                                   Ann K. Minami

    Sentence adjudged 20 January 2022 by a general court-martial con-
    vened at Naval Base Kitsap, Bremerton, Washington, consisting of a
    military judge sitting alone. Sentence in the Entry of Judgment: reduc-
    tion to E-1, confinement for 42 months, 1 and a dishonorable discharge.

    1 Appellant was credited with 129 days of confinement credit. The convening au-
thority deferred all of the automatic forfeitures from 14 days from the date the sentence
was adjudged until the date the entry of judgment was signed by the military judge.
All of the automatic forfeitures were waived for a period of six months, with the waiver
commencing on the date the entry of judgment was signed by the military judge. The
waived forfeitures were directed to be paid to Appellant’s spouse.
