Rhoades v. United States

In this case the court is asked to determine how long, if at all, the pay and allowances of an enlisted member of the *283armed forces continue after the expiration date of enlistment, when he is then in confinement, having been convicted and sentenced by court-martial, but that conviction is set aside on appellate review and the member thereafter is retried and reconvicted. His entitlement to pay and allowances up to the date his enlistment expires is unchallenged, and we hold they continue until the date his second court-martial sentence is approved by the convening authority.
