Whether applying a new rule allowing court-martial to sentence retired Navy and Marine Corps personnel to a dishonorable discharge violated due process

QUESTION PRESENTED After petitioner’s offenses, the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces overruled two precedents without fair warning and held that a court-martial can sentence retired Navy and Marine Corps personnel to a dishonorable discharge. Did it violate due process to apply the new rule to him? See Bouie v. City of Columbia, 378 U.S. 347 (1964).
