Interested in the Guantanamo Bay military commissions?

Are you interested in learning about the trials by the military courts at Guantanamo Bay? If so, the Department of Defense launched a website, Military Commissions, www.mc.mil, devoted specifically to covering those courts. From the Military Commissions website, you can view and download document and court filings from cases against specific individuals and locate summaries of the charges against those individuals.

You can also learn how the military commissions work. Another interesting part of the website provides a chart comparing and contrasting the rules and procedures in military commissions to those in court-martial and Article III courts.

If you are interested in learning more about military courts and law, you can also use resources in the Law Library. A sample catalog search for the Subject Heading military law -- united states should easily get you on your way. If you have any questions, ask a Reference Librarian for assistance.
