Legal Question in Military Law in Colorado

Re: Article 138

You could write an article 138 on a napkin and submit it. There is no set format. However, as a general rule, I would recommend the following format:

I. Nature of Grievance

II. Steps Taken In Chain of Command to Deal with Grievance

III. Steps taken by Commander on the grievance

IV. Why Additional Steps are Needed.

V. Request for Relief

Check out the UCMJ or ask JAG how long the command has to answer your Article 138.

Good luck
