Opinion of the Court
_________________________
This opinion does not serve as binding precedent under
NMCCA Rule of Appellate Procedure 30.2(a).
_________________________
PER CURIAM:
After careful consideration of the record, submitted without assignment of
error, we have determined that the findings and sentence are correct in law
and that no error materially prejudicial to Appellant’s substantial rights oc-
curred.2
However, we note that the Entry of Judgment is deficient in that the mili-
tary judge did not properly note the charge and specifications that were with-
drawn and dismissed prior to findings. Appellant has the right for the Entry of
Judgment to accurately reflect the findings. Although we find no prejudice,
Appellant is entitled to have court-martial records that correctly reflect the
content of his proceeding.3
The findings and sentence are AFFIRMED.
