Court Martial Appeal Court
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Court Martial Appeal Court is a British superior court of record which hears appeals from courts martial.
The Court was originally established in 1951 as the Courts-Martial Appeal Court under the Courts-Martial (Appeals) Act 1951. Its organisation was modified by the Courts-Martial (Appeals) Act 1968. It was renamed as Court Martial Appeal Court by the Armed Forces Act 2006 to reflect the establishment of the Court Martial as a permanent standing court.
