Nevada § 412.372 - Challenges of military judge and members

§ 412.372. Challenges of military judge and members

1. The military judge and members of a general or special court-martial may be challenged

by the accused or the trial counsel for cause stated to the court. The military judge shall determine the relevancy and validity of challenges for

cause, and may not receive a challenge to more than one person at a time. Challenges by the trial counsel shall be presented and decided before those by the

accused are offered, unless justice dictates otherwise. 2. If exercise of a challenge for cause reduces the court below the minimum number

of members required by NRS 412.304 , all parties shall, notwithstanding NRS 412.342 , either exercise or waive any challenge for cause then apparent against the remaining

members of the court before additional members are detailed to the court. However, peremptory challenges must not be exercised at that time. 3. Each accused and the trial counsel is entitled to one peremptory challenge, but

the military judge may not be challenged except for cause. 4. If exercise of a peremptory challenge reduces the court below the minimum number

of members required by NRS 412.304 , the parties shall, notwithstanding NRS 412.342 , either exercise or waive any remaining peremptory challenge not previously waived

against the remaining members of the court before additional members are detailed

to the court. 5. Whenever additional members are detailed to the court and after any challenges

for cause against such additional members are presented and decided, each accused

and the trial counsel are entitled to one peremptory challenge against members not

previously subject to peremptory challenge.
