FOR THE COURT

KATHLEEN M. POTTER

Acting Clerk of the Court

[1] Although Appellant raises no specific assignment of error, we note the record of trial was docketed with this court 32 days after the convening authority took action, exceed- ing the 30-day threshold for a presumptively unreasonable post-trial delay. United States v. Moreno , 63 M.J. 129, 142 (C.A.A.F. 2006). However, we perceive no prejudice to Appellant from the delay. Having considered the relevant factors identified in Moreno , 63 M.J. at 135, and finding no adverse impact on the public’s perception of the fairness or integrity of the military justice system, we find no violation of Appellant’s due process rights. See United States v. Toohey , 63 M.J. 353, 362 (C.A.A.F. 2006). We have also considered whether relief for post-trial delay in the absence of a due process violation pursuant to our authority under Article 66(c), UCMJ, is appropriate, and find it is not. See United States v. Tardif , 57 M.J. 219, 225 (C.A.A.F. 2002); United States v. Gay , 74 M.J. 736, 744 (A.F. Ct. Crim. App. 2015), aff’d , 75 M.J. 264 (C.A.A.F. 2016). 2
