d) Counsel Rights and Warnings

1. 1) General. When evidence of a testimonial or communicative nature within the meaning of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution either is sought or is a reasonable consequence of an interrogation, an accused or a person suspected of an offense is entitled to consult with counsel as provided in subsection (d)(2), to have counsel present at the interrogation, and to be warned of these rights prior to the interrogation if:

   1. A) The interrogation is conducted by a person subject to the Code who is required to give warnings under Code Section 31 and the accused or suspect is in custody, could reasonably believe himself or herself to be in custody, or is otherwise deprived of his or her freedom of action in any significant way; or
   2. B) The interrogation is conducted by a person subject to the Code acting in a law enforcement capacity, or the agent of such a person, the interrogation is conducted subsequent to the preferral of charges, and the interrogation concerns the offenses or matters that were the subject of the preferral of the charges.
2. 2) Counsel. When a person entitled to counsel under this subsection (d) requests counsel, a judge advocate or an individual certified in accordance with Code Section 27(b) shall be provided by the State at no expense to the person and without regard to the person's indigency or lack of indigency before the interrogation may proceed. In addition to counsel supplied by the State, the person may retain civilian counsel at no expense to the State. Unless otherwise provided by regulations of the Adjutant General, an accused or suspect does not have a right under this subsection (d) to have military counsel of his or her own selection.
