412.404 Record of trial.
1. Each court-martial shall keep a separate record of the proceedings of the trial of each case brought before it and the record must be authenticated by the signatures of the president and the military judge. If the record cannot be authenticated by either the president or the military judge, by reason of his or her absence, it must be signed by a member in lieu of him or her. If both the president and the military judge are unavailable, the record must be authenticated by two members. A record of the proceedings of a trial in which the sentence adjudged includes a bad-conduct discharge or is more than that which could be adjudged by a special court-martial must contain a complete verbatim account of the proceedings and testimony before the court. All other records of trial must contain such matter and be authenticated in such manner as the Governor may, by Office regulation, prescribe.
2. A copy of the record of the proceedings of each general and special court-martial must be given to the accused as soon as it is authenticated. If a verbatim record of trial by general court-martial is not required by subsection 1, the accused may buy such a record in accordance with Office regulations.
