SENTENCING SEVERITY
Military Criminal Lawyers Can Help You File an Appeal
There are laws that regulate how severe a sentence can be for criminal offenses. In some cases, a court-martial conviction can be appealed if it is determined that the sentence was too severe.
“Congress has vested responsibility for determining sentence appropriateness in the Courts of Criminal Appeals. The power to review a case for sentence appropriateness, which reflects the unique history and attributes of the military justice system, includes but is not limited to considerations of uniformity and evenhandedness of sentencing decisions.” United States v. Durant, 55 M.J. 258, 260 (C.A.A.F. 2001) (internal citations omitted).
The Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces will independently determine whether a sentence is appropriate for the offense a defendant was convicted of. During the appeals process, an experienced military criminal attorney from Daniel Conway & Associates can serve as your representative as we work together to appeal an unfair sentence.
You can discuss your case and the possibility of an appeal with our attorneys during a free consultation. Call (757) 401-6365 today.
