I’m informed that the CA acted on LTC Lakin’s case, approving the court-martial’s results, on 7 April. Michelle McCluer provides this Army Times link to an AP story quoting an Army spokesperson confirming that the CA–Major General Karl Horst–has acted and approved the court-martial’s results.
7 April woud be 112 days after the conclusion of the court-martial, which is within the Moreno post-trial processing standard. I’m informed that the case has not yet been docketed with the Army Court of Criminal Appeals. Under the Moreno standards, the government has 30 days from the CA’s action to docket the case.
Curiously, none of the Lakinista websites seem to have noted the CA’s action. And the Terry Lakin Action Fund website continues to exort readers to “HELP PLEAD FOR CLEMENCY,” even providing the CA’s email address.
It will be interesting to see who represents LTC Lakin on appeal. I imagine that all the prominent birther lawyers will offer their services pro bono. We could be in for a guano-fest at ACCA.
