United States v. Gauthier

Opinion of the Court

We granted review to determine whether the accused’s unauthorized possession of Lysergic Acid Diethyl- • amide (LSD) in violation of a general regulation, and wrongful possession of marihuana on the same occasion were separate for the purposes of punishment. For the reasons set out in United States v Meyer, 21 USCMA 310, 45 CMR 84, decided this date, we conclude that the offenses are separately punishable. Accordingly, we affirm the decision of the United States Army Court of Military Review.

I concur in the result. See my opinion concurring in the result in United States v Meyer, 21 USCMA 310, 45 CMR 84 (1972).
