Article 15/Captain's Mast/NJP
An E-5 was given an Article 15 for dereliction of duty,
found guilty and was reduced to E-4. On appeal, Mr.
George personally appeared before the appellate
authority, an 0-6, and negotiated a deal in which the
appeal was dropped and the client's reduction was
suspended (his E-5 rank was conditionally restored.)
An E-2 was given an Article 15 for failure to go to her
place of duty. Mr. George did a thorough investigation
and following a meeting with the client's commander, the
Article 15 was withdrawn.
An E-3 was given an Article 15 for passing a bad check.
Despite not having a receipt or the check, Mr. George
convinced the command that the client had repaid the
money and the Article 15 was withdrawn.
An E-5 was given an Article 15 for sleeping on duty. Mr.
George wrote a detailed memo arguing that the
government produced insufficient evidence to support
the charge. The member was found not guilty and the
Article 15 was dismissed.
