United States v. Craig

OPINION OF THE COURT

BADAMI, Judge:

Appellant was convicted by a general court-martial of indecent assault and attempted kidnapping, in violation of Articles 134 and 80, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), 10 U.S.C. §§ 934 and 880. He was sentenced to a bad-conduct discharge and confinement at hard labor for 15 months. He contends that the finding of guilty of attempted kidnapping should be dismissed because there is no such crime in the military and that the court erred in denying his motion to dismiss the indecent assault charge since the charges were multiplicious. We affirm.

The record…
