OPINION OF THE COURT

NAUGHTON, Judge:

Appellant contends that he was prejudiced by the sentence limitation terms of the pretrial agreement which were operative only if a punitive discharge was adjudged. In light of United States v. Castleberry, 18 M.J. 826 (ACMR 1984), and United States v. Holmes, 17 M.J. 830 (ACMR), pet. denied, 18 M.J. 438 (CMA 1984), we find this contention to be without merit. Such provisions are not violative of public policy.

Appellant also contends that the convening authority erred in failing to grant appellant administrative credit for pretrial confinement served. See United States v. Allen, 17 M.J. 126 (CMA 1984). We need not now rule on this matter. See United States v. Clark, 17 M.J. 431 (CMA 1984) (summary disposition).

The findings of guilty and the sentence are affirmed.

Judge COHEN concurs.¹
