Section 33-13-11 - Dismissal of commissioned officer(1) If any commissioned officer, dismissed by order of the Governor, makes a written application for trial by court-martial, setting forth, under oath, that he has been wrongfully dismissed, the Governor, as soon as practicable, shall convene a general court-martial to try that officer on the charges on which he was dismissed. A court-martial so convened has jurisdiction to try the dismissed officer on those charges, and he shall be considered to have waived the right to plead any statute of limitations applicable to any offense with which he is charged. The court-martial may, as part of its sentence, adjudge the affirmance of the dismissal, but if the court-martial acquits the accused he shall retain his status in the Mississippi military forces.(2) If the Governor fails to convene a general court-martial within three (3) months from the presentation of an application for trial under this code, the Adjutant General of Mississippi, or his designee, acting on behalf of the Governor, shall substitute for the dismissal ordered by the Governor a form of discharge authorized for administrative issue.(3) If a discharge is substituted for a dismissal under this code, the Governor alone may reappoint the officer to such commissioned grade and with such rank as, in the opinion of the Governor, that former officer would have attained had he not been dismissed. The reappointment of such a former officer may be made only if a vacancy is available under applicable tables of organization. All time between the dismissal and the reappointment shall be considered as actual service for all purposes.(4) If an officer is discharged from the state military forces by administrative action or by board proceedings under law, he has no right to trial under this section.Former § 33-13-7 [Codes, 1942, § 8529-04; Laws, 1966, ch. 538, § 4] amended and recodified as § 33-13-11 by Laws, 1981, ch. 362, § 6, eff. 7/1/1981.
