United States v. Bozeman

CCA 20080711. Review granted on the following issue:

WHEN THE GOVERNMENT FAILS TO ALLEGE AN ARTICLE 134 TERMINAL ELEMENT, THE CHARGE FAILS TO STATE AN OFFENSE UNLESS THE TERMINAL ELEMENT CAN BE “NECESSARILY IMPLIED” FROM THE LANGUAGE OF THE SPECIFICATION. THE MISSING TERMINAL ELEMENT FROM THE SPECIFICATIONS OF CHARGE III CANNOT BE NECESSARILY IMPLIED FROM THE TEXT. ARE THE SPECIFICATIONS FATALLY DEFECTIVE?

No briefs will be filed under Rule 25.
