United States Court of Military Appeals April 30, 1971, No. 23,664 (United States v. Davis)

lead-opinion

Opinion

Darden, Judge:

The appellant in this case contends that delay in the review of his case deprived him of military due process.

On October 5, 1969, Davis escaped from the brig at Quantico, Virginia, while serving a general court-martial sentence. Eight days later he surrendered. Six days after that this special court-martial commenced.
