nonjudicial punishment

Military law. A procedure under which a commanding officer levies punishment against a minor offender who is subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

• In the Navy and Coast Guard, nonjudicial punishment is termed captain’s mast; in the Marine Corps, it is termed office hours; and in the Army and Air Force, it is referred to as Article 15. Nonjudicial punishment is not a court-martial. [Cases: Armed Services 39; Military Justice 525. C.J.S. Armed Services §§ 155, 159; Military Justice § 24–27.]
