美国哥伦比亚特区上诉法院三法官小组周二裁定，联邦地方法官无权推翻前美军士兵博·博格达尔的军事法庭定罪，仅有军事法庭本身拥有推翻其判决的权力1。博格达尔因在阿富汗擅离职守而被军事法庭定罪1。
博格达尔曾于2021年起诉，主张2023年的判决违反了第五修正案的正当程序权1。但上诉法院驳回了这一主张，认定只有军事法庭有权推翻军事法庭的判决1。根据事实记录，博格达尔在2009年6月未经许可离开岗位1，之后在2014年从塔利班关押中获释，作为战俘交换的一部分1。2017年，他对擅离职守和在敌前不当行为两项指控认罪1，随后被不名誉除军1，检察官曾要求对其判处14年监禁1。
A three-judge panel from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled Tuesday that a federal district judge did not have the power to overturn the military court conviction of former Army soldier Bowe Bergdahl, who was court-martialed for desertion in Afghanistan.1 The court determined that only a military tribunal possesses the authority to reverse its own convictions, rejecting Bergdahl's 2021 lawsuit in which he claimed the 2023 ruling violated his Fifth Amendment due process rights.1
Bergdahl had left his post without authorization in June 2009 and was held by the Taliban until his release in 2014 as part of a prisoner exchange.1 In 2017, he pleaded guilty to charges of desertion and misbehavior before the enemy.1 A military court subsequently issued him a dishonorable discharge, while prosecutors had sought a 14-year prison sentence.1
