How Long Does the Njp Process Take

From start to finish, the process takes at a minimum 2 months and can take over a year to complete.

What are the steps of NJP?

Make inquiry into the facts surrounding minor offenses allegedly committed by a member of his command; Afford the accused a hearing as to such offenses; and. Dispose of such charges by dismissing them, imposing punishment under the provisions of Article 15, or referring the case to a court-martial.

Can you get a dishonorable discharge from an NJP?

If the individual is found guilty at NJP, there is also a strong likelihood, depending upon the subject offense(s), that the commander will order that the individual be thereafter processed for administrative separation, which could result in a discharge characterized as OTH (Other than Honorable).
