Opinion
CCA 38020. Review granted on the following issue:
WHETHER THE AIR FORCE COURT’S DECISION MUST BE SET ASIDE BECAUSE ONE OF THE JUDGES WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE DECISION OF APPELLANT’S CASE WAS UNCONSTITUTIONALLY APPOINTED.
In light of Ryder v. United States, 515 U.S. 177 (1995) and United States v. Carpenter, 37 M.J. 291 (C.M.A. 1993), vacated, 515 U.S. 1138 (1995), the decision of the United States Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals is set aside.
