Most likely.  You've proven that you have no integrity because you lied.  You said "going against"  Is it a court martial or non judicial punishment?  Each has a different max punishment allowed, as does the summary, special and general courts martial.  \nMaximum punishment. \n\n(1) Fraudulent enlistment or appointment. Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement for 2 years. \n\n(2) Fraudulent separation. Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement for 5 years. \n\nThere is more info about Art 83 in this website.

The previous responses show a relative lack of ignorance about the military's policies.  Generally the military allows those who go AWOL from BCT to come back with a relatively minimal punishment.  There will of course be punishment however it is not overly harsh (May seem so at the time though).\n\nIf you are chronically AWOL or gone for a substantial amount of time the punishments are different.  Generally they are chaptered (Kicked out) of the army under a policy called failure to adapt.  They are sent to Fort Knox for outprocessing and spend some time there before being sent home.  \n\nI realize that this varies on a case by case basis but my summary is generally accurate.

No you can't. You might be able to get the Army to do it, if they will acquit you of the charges, or lower them to a misdemeanor. 15 years of U.S. Navy service, is my source.

If you are convicted of going AWOL/deserting and the punishment for that offence includes discharge from the service then yes I think the discharge would be dishonourable.\n\nHowever it is possible that the sentence would not include discharge. If this was the case then you would continue in the service, after serving whatever punishment was administered, and your subsequent discharge would not necessarily be dishonourable.

Probably 1 -2 years probation ...maybe pay some fines, or do community service for a certain number  of hours

The maximum U.S. penalty for desertion in wartime remains death, although this punishment was last applied to Eddie Slovik in 1945.\n\nAccording to the Pentagon, over 5500 military personnel deserted in 2003–2004, following the Iraq invasion and occupation.\n\nMaximum punishment. \n\n(1) Completed or attempted desertion with intent to avoid hazardous duty or to shirk important service. Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement for 5 years. \n\n(2) Other cases of completed or attempted desertion. \n\n\n(a) Terminated by apprehension. Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement for 3 years. \n\n(b) Terminated otherwise. Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and confinement for 2 years. \n\n(3) In time of war. Death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct

First, provided you're upfront with your recruiter you normally won't get disqualified from joining the Navy for that kind of misdemeanor.  \n\nBut, before you plead guilty, I would encourage you to keep that court date, explain your situation to the judge, and very respectfully ask to be let off with a warning and no conviction.  Explain that you're about to go into the Navy, and you're afraid it might hurt your career...  Who knows-- it can't hurt.  If he says yes, great. If he says no, pay the fine right then and there.\n\nThe conviction won't disqualify you from serving, but you'll get asked about it over and over again, when you're up for re-enlistment, if you need to get a security clearance, etc.  If you can avoid that hassle, do.

talk to a recruiter = immigration shouldn't have anything to do with it, serving time depends on where, how long ago and for what, dont tell them you've ever done drugs, unless that's what you were doing time for (with the immigration waiver and the jail waiver, don't want to push it with trying to get a drug waiver too).  just talk to them, see what they have to say and go from there.  or check out the website for the navy and look under enlistment requirements

I can't tell you for sure, but it's worse than a civilian.  Battery (or assault) of a uniformed officer will net you a few more years, at least.

Funny I was just reading a report yesterday that said that there were like 268 bad conduct discharges that were appealed last year.  Only one was "upgraded".  If you still have your DD-214 see what the R number is down in the bottom corner, that is what really counts.  I am told that senators are the point of contact to try to improve this, however being senators I am sure you will not get far with them.  Good luck, I would start by writting or emailing your local house rep. and Senator.  If you do not hear anything after a few weeks, then start calling and being a pest.  I do not know how much effort I would waste on this though.  I have seen people with horrible discharges get some really great jobs, as long as they were not gov. contracts or needed security clearences.

There a few classes of Dishcharges  listed in order from best to worst\n\n1. Honorable\n2. General\n3. Other than Honorable\n4. Dishornorable.\n\nThe first two are basically the same except for the fact the General throws up flags for employers and they might want to know why. Other than Honorable is usually what they give your for getting in trouble for minor stuff (failed urinalysis, failure to follow instructions or being AWOL.) A Dishonorable is pretty bad its a Felony Conviction and will haunt you for the rest of your life. As far as benefits go, im not really sure, but at the time of your seperation for Other than Honorable you can negotiate your benefits, as far as medical and disablity type issues but no GI bill.

Article 155 of the UCMJ\n\nMALINGERING \n\n"Any person subject to this chapter who for the purpose of avoiding work, duty, or service--\n\n(1) feigns illness, physical disablement, mental lapse or derangement; or\n\n(2) intentionally inflects self-injury;\n\nshall be punished as a court-martial may direct."\n\nMalingering is a fancy word for "lazy dirt bag" so they obviously don't think much of you at this point.\n\nRegardless of what you did they are trying to punish you (take away pay, rank, or Free time, etc.) or get you out of the military (chapter)\n\nMalingering is where you try to avoid work by one of the above causes.  I have heard of it used for the overweight soldiers who do not loose it.

the penalties can range form a small fine to time in jail.  i have had the warden stop me before and one of our guys got a hundred and fifty dollar fine.  plus to be sure look at your local hunting laws and regulations for wht penalties you are subjected for each type of game you are hunting

Depends on the charges.  He could get brig time for years.  If they only recommend BCD, he'll be out in six or eight months.  If it's just a threat they are using right now...  He'll probably wind up serving his full term.  The easiest way out is to fulfill your contract honorably.  Less stress makes it seem faster.

UCMJ Prevents double jepoardy.  If it happened on a military instalation-Court Martial.  If it happened out in town-The military will let the civilian authorities handle it.  If the soldier is found guilty, the service will discharge the person.  On lesser offences if found guilty, the service can charge the person with unauthorized absence for being in jail.  If found innosent, the service member will be returned to service and get back pay because their pay was stopped while they were in jail.
