Reprimands
While these actions are not necessarily for criminal allegations, many times a
commander or supervisor will elect to punish a criminal violation under the UCMJ
with this lower type of punishment. A commander of supervisor may also use these
tools to document poor duty performance or failure to meet standards. These
proceedings may result in a variety of different collateral consequences if not
addressed appropriately. Attorney Mike Coco can assist a client to put together
a presentation to mitigate the situation or to get the punishment lowered or thrown
out altogether.
