IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-02842
INDEX CODE: 110.02
XXXXXXXXXXX COUNSEL: None
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 11 MARCH 2009
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded to
honorable.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Since her discharge, she has obtained a degree.
In support of her request, applicant provides a copy of her DD Form 214.
The applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant contracted her initial enlistment in the Regular Air Force on 4
March 1992.
From 1 November 1992 to 23 January 1993, the applicant wrote 29 checks, of
which 20 were returned for insufficient funds. For these incidents, she
received a Letter of Reprimand (LOR) and was placed on the Control Roster.
On 9 December 1992, the applicant wrote a check in the amount of $150.00 in
payment of a debt and failed to maintain sufficient funds for the payment
of said check. For this incident, punishment under Article 15, Uniform
Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), was imposed. She was reduced to the grade
of airman basic and restricted to the limits of the base for 14 days.
On 10 December 1992, the applicant failed to redeem a bad check as
previously agreed to do. For this incident, she received an LOR.
On 29 March 1993, the applicant was notified by her commander of his intent
to discharge her for Pattern of Misconduct – Dishonorable Failure to Pay
Just Debts. She was advised of her rights in this matter and acknowledged
receipt on that same date. Applicant elected not to submit statements in
her behalf. In a legal review of the discharge case file, the staff judge
advocate found it legally sufficient and recommended she be discharged from
the Air Force with a general discharge. On 7 April 1993, the discharge
authority directed she be discharged with a general discharge without
probation and rehabilitation. Applicant was credited with 1 year, 1 month
and 9 days of active service. On this same date, the applicant was ordered
not to reenter or be found within the limits of the base for a period of
three years.
Pursuant to the Board’s request, the FBI indicated that on the basis of the
data furnished, they were unable to locate an arrest record pertaining to
the applicant.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or
regulations.
2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the interest of
justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of error or injustice. We took notice of the applicant’s
complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we find no
evidence of an error or injustice that occurred in the discharge
processing. Based on the available evidence of record, it appears the
discharge was consistent with the substantive requirements of the discharge
regulation and within the commander’s discretionary authority. The
applicant has provided no evidence which would lead us to believe the
characterization of the service was contrary to the provisions of the
governing regulation, unduly harsh, or disproportionate to the offenses
committed. We considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency;
however, we do not find the evidence presented is sufficient to compel us
to recommend granting the relief sought on that basis. Therefore, in the
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis upon which to
recommend granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate
the existence of material error or injustice; that the application was
denied and that the application will only be reconsidered upon the
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
