Revises provisions governing military justice. (BDR 36-11)
SB 95 gives Nevada National Guard service members the right to demand a formal military trial (court-martial) instead of accepting administrative punishment for minor offenses. The bill requires commanding officers to provide written notice of this right and allow at least 48 hours for service members to decide before punishment is imposed. It amends Nevada law to ensure administrative punishment cannot be applied if a service member has demanded a court-martial. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025, directly affecting Nevada National Guard members facing nonjudicial proceedings.
