Legal Question in Military Law in North Carolina

Upgrade my discharge

I served from 05/29/2000 to 05/11/2004 when I was seperated from the USMC under other than honorable conditions all NJPs no court martials, no drugs, just bad alcoholism that led me to being tardy a lot. They sent me through Alcohol Treatment and I passed and still got discharged. Do I have a good chance at upgrading?

Re: Upgrade my discharge

In order to appeal or recharacterize a former personnel's discharge status, an appeal needs to be made to either the service branch's discharge review board or board for correction of military records depending on various factors; however, I would need to know more details to better assess the situation.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to set up an initial consultation, free of charge. If we set up an appointment, I'd be happy to initiate the call in order to save you in long distance charges.
