1. A. Upon conclusion of a court-martial, the military judge forwards the court-martial file to the appropriate staff judge advocate, who prepares a written legal review for the convening authority. For an example, see Figure 7-7. If the approved sentence of a SPCM includes a dishonorable discharge, the State Judge Advocate will also review the record, after the SPCMCA's SJA's review and before the convening authority's action. All GCM's will also be reviewed by the State Judge Advocate.
