HAR §7-2-4. Who may impose non-judicial punishment

(a) Non-judicial punishment may be imposed by any commanding officer, unless a superior commanding officer has restricted or withheld the authority to impose punishment on certain categories of military personnel or offenses. For example, general officers in command may reserve to themselves the authority to impose non-judicial punishment on officers within their command. (b) A detachment commander shall be an officer in charge as mentioned in section 124A-21(c), HRS, and shall have the same authority as the commanding officer to impose non-judicial punishment upon members of the officer's detachment.
