Combined UCMJ Punishments Chart for UCMJ Offenses: Maximum Punishments
Below is a combined list of all offenses punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). It contains the Maximum Punishments for UCMJ Offenses as of May 2024. The maximum and minimum punishments for UCMJ offenses vary depending on the date of the offense. Pay close attention to the date that the alleged offense occurred.
Offenses committed after December 27, 2023, are now categorized as 1-6 (see chart below). There are now maximum and minimum punishments. Many offenses now carry a mandatory minimum jail sentence. This chart does not constitute legal advice. Please consult with an experienced military defense lawyer and the Manual for Court-Martial for updated sentencing laws.
New Categories: Mandatory Confinement Ranges for UCMJ Offenses Committed After 27 Dec 2023
Category 1 Offense: Confinement from 0-12 months
Category 2 Offense: Confinement from 1-36 months (1 month to 3 years)
Category 3 Offense: Confinement from 30-120 months (2 years and 6 months to 10 years)
Category 4 Offense: Confinement from 120-240 months (10 to 20 years)
Category 5 Offense: Confinement from 240-480 months (20 to 40 years)
Note: For all above categories, if the confinement portion of the maximum authorized punishment for the offense is less than the Offense Category’s confinement maximum, the lesser confinement portion of the maximum authorized punishment shall be the recommended maximum confinement time for that offense. At a special court-martial, for an offense that is a category 3 offense or greater, the jurisdictional maximum period of confinement (12 months) constitutes the parameters; however, the military judge may impose a period of confinement less than the jurisdictional maximum period of confinement upon finding specific facts that warrant such a sentence.
