Section 31-2A-2 (Article 2.) Persons subject to this code; jurisdiction. (a) This code applies to all members of the state military forces at all times and in all places, except it does not apply to a member for any offenses committed while in a duty status under Title 10 U.S.C. (b) Subject matter jurisdiction is established if a clear and convincing nexus exists between an offense, either military or non-military, and the state military force. When a member is in a duty status under either Title 32 U.S.C. or State Active Duty then a rebuttable presumption exists that the nexus is established. A proper civilian court has primary jurisdiction of an offense when an act or omission violates both this code and civilian criminal law, foreign or domestic. In such a case, a court-martial may be initiated only after the civilian prosecutorial authority has declined to prosecute or dismissed the charge, provided jeopardy has not attached. Courts-martial shall have primary jurisdiction over all...
