5 M.J. 424 | United States Court of Military Appeals | 1978
Opinion of the Court
We granted review to consider the effect of the failure to serve on defense counsel a copy of a second post-trial review by the staff judge advocate that had been mandated by the Court of Military Review, and three assignments of error dealing with different aspects of an alleged illegal search.
The Government concedes the “record does not indicate that a copy of” the second review was served on defense counsel as required by United States v. Goode, 1 M.J. 3 (C.M.A.1975). In United States v. Hill, 3 M.J. 295, 297 (C.M.A.1977), we held that “the purpose of Goode can be effected only if we insist upon compliance” with it. Consequently, a new review is required. Ordinarily we would remand the record of trial for that purpose (see United States v. Quan, 4 M.J. 244 (C.M.A.1978)), but the period of confinement adjudged expired years ago; the period of suspension of the bad-conduct
