BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-24890

SUN
Docket No: 767-15
24 March 2015

 

Dear Garey

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of title 10 of the United
States Code, section 1552.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 3 March 2015. The names and votes of the members|
of the panel will be furnished. upon request. Your allegations of
error and injustice were reviewed in accordance with
administrative regulations and procedures applicable to the
proceedings of this Board. Documentary material considered by
the Board consisted of your application, together with all
material submitted in support thereof, your naval record, and
applicable statutes, regulations, and policies.

After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire
record, the Board found the evidence submitted was insufficient

to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.

On 20 May 2014, you received nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for
pandering and prostitution. The Board also found that on

24 September 2014, you were informed that civil authorities
declined to prosecute your case. However, this dismissal was in
no way related to the NUP you received from your commanding
officer (CO) on 20 May 2014. Additionally, it is important to
keep in mind that the NUP and civil actions were two separate
fact finding processes, and the decision of the latter does not
cancel out the finding of the former. Your CO’s decision to
impose NUJP was appropriate, and is administratively and
procedurally correct as written and filed. The Board further
concluded that the removal of the NUP is not warranted, and that
such action would be unfair to your peers, against whom you will
compete for promotions and assignments. Finally, the Board also
noted that you accepted NUP and did not appeal the finding of
guilt. Accordingly, your application has been denied.
It is regrettable that the circumstances of your case are such
that favorable action cannot be taken. You are entitled to have
the Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new and
material evidence within one year from the date of the Board's
decision. New evidence is evidence not previously considered by
the Board prior to making its decision in your case. In this
regard, it is important to keep in mind that a presumption of
regularity attaches to all official records. Consequently, when
applying for a correction of an official record, the burden is on
the applicant to demonstrate the existence of material error or
injustice.

Sincergly,

   
   

ROBERT J. O'NEILL
Executive Director
