How later courts describe this case

  • “The fact that appellate defense counsel can show how the case may have been tried differently does not equate to ineffective representation at the trial level.”
  • "... we recognize inherent authority in the military judge to permit such a procedure in the unusual circumstance where it is necessary to insure a fair trial.”
