192A.11 JURISDICTION OF SUMMARY COURTS-MARTIAL.
    Subdivision 1. Jurisdictions. Subject to section 192A.095 summary courts-martial have
jurisdiction to try persons subject to this code, except commissioned or warrant officers, for any
offense made punishable by this code.
    Subd. 2. Objection to form. No person with respect to whom summary courts-martial
have jurisdiction may be brought to trial before a summary court-martial if that person objects
thereto, unless under section 192A.085 that person has been permitted and has elected to refuse
punishment under that section. If objection to trial by summary court-martial is made by an
accused who has not been permitted to refuse punishment under section 192A.085, trial shall be
ordered by special or general court-martial, as may be appropriate.
    Subd. 3. Punishment options. A summary court-martial may adjudge the following
punishments:
(1) a reprimand;
(2) confinement of not more than 15 days or a fine of not more than $25;
(3) forfeiture of not more than 12 days' pay;
(4) reduction in rank of an enlisted member to any lower enlisted rank including the lowest
enlisted grade; or
(5) any combination of these punishments.
