§ 5924.54.
(A) Each general court-martial shall keep a separate record of the proceedings in each
case brought before it, and the record shall be authenticated by the signature of
the military judge. If the record cannot be authenticated by the military judge by reason of death,
disability, or absence, it shall be authenticated by the signature of the trial counsel
or by that of a member if the trial counsel is unable to authenticate it by reason
of death, disability, or absence. In a court-martial consisting of only a military judge, the record shall be authenticated
by the court reporter under the same conditions that would impose such a duty on a
member under this division. (B) Each special and summary court-martial shall keep a separate record of the proceedings
in each case, and the record shall be authenticated in the manner required by regulations
prescribed by the adjutant general. (C)(1) A complete record of the proceedings and testimony shall be prepared in the following
cases: (a) Each case tried before a general court-martial in which the sentence adjudged includes
a dismissal, a discharge, or any punishment that exceeds the punishment that may otherwise
be adjudged by a special court-martial; (b) Each case tried before a special court-martial in which the sentence adjudged includes
a bad-conduct discharge or confinement for more than six months. (2) In all other cases tried before a court-martial, the record shall contain any matters
that are required by regulations of the adjutant general. A copy of the record of the proceedings of each general and special court-martial
shall be given to the accused as soon as it is authenticated.
