322.0675 History History: 2007 a. 200; 2009 a. 179.
322.0675 Annotation In reviewing sentences under this section, a Wisconsin appellate court will apply the same deferential review it normally applies to sentencing. When it engages in appellate review under this section, the court is to conduct appellate review as would a military appellate court, following the federal Uniform Code of Military Justice and the federal military law interpreting that code, so far as it is “practical” to do so. Applying the relevant dictionary definitions, Wisconsin appellate judges are unable to conduct the sort of independent review required by federal military law in a useful and unspeculative manner.

Any other part of a court-martial sentence may be ordered executed by the convening authority or other person acting on the case under s. 322.060 when so approved under that section.

322.075 322.075 Article 75 — Restoration.
322.075(1)(1)Under regulations as may be prescribed, all rights, privileges, and property affected by an executed part of a court-martial sentence which has been set aside or disapproved, except an executed dismissal or discharge, shall be restored unless a new trial or rehearing is ordered and the executed part is included in a sentence imposed upon the new trial or rehearing.
322.075(2) (2)If a previously executed sentence of dishonorable or bad-conduct discharge is not imposed on a new trial, the governor may substitute therefor a form of discharge authorized for administrative issuance unless the accused is to serve out the remainder of the accused's enlistment.
322.075(3) (3)If a previously executed sentence of dismissal is not imposed on a new trial, the governor may substitute a form of discharge authorized for administrative issue, and the commissioned officer dismissed by that sentence may be reappointed by the governor alone to a commissioned grade and rank as in the opinion of the governor that former officer would have attained had he or she not been dismissed. The reappointment of a former officer shall be without regard to the existence of a vacancy and shall affect the promotion status of other officers only insofar as the governor may direct. All time between the dismissal and the reappointment shall be considered as actual service for all purposes, including the right to pay and allowances.

322.0763 322.0763 Article 76a — Leave required to be taken pending review of certain court-martial convictions. Under regulations prescribed, an accused who has been sentenced by a court-martial may be required to take leave pending completion of action under this section if the sentence, as approved under s. 322.060, includes an unsuspended dismissal or an unsuspended dishonorable or bad-conduct discharge. The accused may be required to begin leave on the date on which the sentence is approved under s. 322.060 or at any time after that date, and any leave may be continued until the date on which action under this section is completed or may be terminated at any earlier time.

If the court-martial determines that the person is making sufficient progress toward becoming competent, the commitment shall continue. If the court-martial determines that the person is not likely to become competent to proceed in the time period specified under s. 971.14 (5) (a), the court-martial shall suspend or terminate the commitment order under this subsection.
