in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Under regulations, a service member accused of an offense against civil authority may be delivered to that authority for trial. If the member is later convicted and was serving a court-martial sentence, the civil case pauses that sentence until military authorities request the member's return.

(a) Under regulations issued by the Secretary concerned, a service member accused of an offense against civil authority may be delivered to that civil authority for trial when the authority requests it. (b) If the person is serving a court-martial sentence when delivered, and a civil tribunal convicts the person, execution of the court-martial sentence is interrupted. After answering to the civil authorities for the offense, the person must be returned to military custody to finish the sentence when competent military authorities request it.
