Section 15-16-1 Defense of insanity to be by special plea. When the defense of insanity is
set up in any criminal prosecution, it must be by special plea, interposed at the time of
arraignment and entered of record upon the docket of the court, which, in substance, shall
be "not guilty by reason of insanity." A plea of insanity shall not preclude the
usual plea of the general issue, which shall not, however, put in issue the question of the
irresponsibility of the accused by reason of his alleged insanity, this question being triable
only under the special plea. (Code 1896, §4939; Code 1907, §7176; Code 1923, §4573; Code
1940, T. 15, §423.)...

Section 15-23-43 Waiver of protection; exception for suit against counselor by victim. (a)
A victim does not waive the protections afforded by this article by testifying in court about
the crime. (1) However, if the victim partially discloses the contents of a confidential communication
in the course of testifying, then either party may request the court to rule that justice
requires the protections of this section be waived, to the extent they apply to that portion
of the communication. (2) Any waiver shall apply only to the extent necessary to require any
witness to respond to counsel's questions concerning the confidential communication that are
relevant to the facts and circumstances of the case. (b) A victim counselor cannot waive the
protections afforded to a victim under this section. However, if a victim brings suit against

31-2A-2
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...

may be tried a second time for the same offense. (b) No proceeding in which an accused has
been found guilty by a court-martial upon any charge or specification is a trial pursuant
to this article until the finding of guilty has become final after review of the case has
been fully completed. (c) A proceeding which, after the introduction of evidence but before
