Sec. 20. Article 20. Jurisdiction of summary courts-martial.

(a) Subject to Article 17 of this Code, summary courts-martial have jurisdiction to try persons subject to this Code, except officers, cadets, and candidates for any offense made punishable by this Code under such limitations as the Governor may prescribe.

(b) No person with respect to whom summary courts-martial have jurisdiction may be brought to trial before a summary court-martial if that person objects thereto. If objection to trial by summary court-martial is made by an accused, trial by special or general court-martial may be ordered, as may be appropriate. Summary courts-martial may, under such limitations as the Governor may prescribe, adjudge any punishment not forbidden by this Code except dismissal, dishonorable or bad-conduct discharge, confinement for more than one month, restriction to specified limits for more than 2 months, or forfeiture of more than two-thirds of one month's pay.
