Supreme Court Rules Limit Rights in Military Courts
The Supreme Court on Wednesday twice rejected constitutional challenges to military authority. It ruled 5 to 4 that an enlisted service member tried by a summary court martial for a minor offense has no constitutional right to a lawyer, and 6 to 3 that a commanding officer may bar political speeches and rallies on publicly accessible base areas. Justice Rehnquist argued for broader civilian protections in the counsel case, while Justices Stewart and Marshall dissented, warning of eroding constitutional safeguards for service members. The decisions follow a trend allowing military need to outweigh certain civilian rights.
