§124. Article 24. Who may convene summary courts-martial
A. Summary courts-martial may be convened by any person who may convene a general or special court-martial, and the commanding officer of a detached company or other detachment.
B. When only one commissioned officer is present with a command or detachment he shall be the summary courts-martial of that command or detachment and shall hear and determine all summary court-martial cases brought before him. Summary courts-martial may, however, be convened in any case by superior competent authority when considered desirable by him.
C. The governor may by regulations restrict the authority to convene summary courts-martial to designated commands and attach units thereto for the administration of military justice.
