Sir (Maj Rowe), I've attached a draft NJP pretrial agreement for your consideration. The head prosecutor is hinting, despite what the SJA said to Haytham; that MajGen Bailey will recommend that you be allowed to stay in the Corps until retirement. All you would need to do is accept NJP for drunk and disorderly. If you accept NJP (i.e. you are not pleading guilty at NJP), you potentially could argue your position before the CG about why you were not drunk and disorderly. I don't know if the attached would fly with General Bailey, but if it did, I would say that it would be a win for you. I can't see a MCRD BOI kicking you out after General Bailey recommends his retention. No way. On the other hand, based on my experience of trials as a prosecutor and defense attorney; I forsee say a 75% chance of getting the Article 120 specs kicked at either an Article 32 or trial and maybe a 50/50 shot of beating the Article 133 charges. I trust and defer to Haytham's wisdom on this point though. He has way more trials than me and way, way more acquittals than me. Christian P.

I specifically request contact information for Ogltree and Vinson if you have it. DO NOT contact any witnesses that are adverse to you. DO NOT speak to ANY witnesses about your case. The government frequently adds charges of obstruction of justice when defendants contact witnesses regardless of the content of the conversation. > > Haytham Faraj, Esq. > PUCKETT & FARAJ, PC > _______________________ > WASHINGTON DC METRO > 1800 Diagonal Road > Suite 210 > Alexandria, VA 22314 > 703-706-0442 Phone > > DETROIT METRO > 6200 Schaefer Road > Suite 202 > Dearborn, MI 48126 > 313-457-1390 Phone > 202-280-1039 Fax > > www.puckettfaraj.com > > The information contained in this electronic message is confidential, and is intended for the use of the individual or entity named above.
