The following provisions apply with regard to jurisdiction under this Code:

1.  An offense of a purely military nature contained in the Code may be the subject of administrative measures, nonjudicial punishment or courts-martial. Each military offense is derived from the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 801 et seq. and, to the extent not inconsistent with the Code provisions describing those offenses, this Code incorporates each element of the offense as described in the Uniform Code with the following clarifications:

(a) Insofar as an element of an offense described in the Uniform Code refers to the United States, the element also refers to this State.

(b) Insofar as an element of an offense described in the Uniform Code refers to persons in the service of the United States or officials thereof, the element also includes persons in the service of the state military forces or state officials as provided in the Code.

(c) Insofar as an element refers to the property of the United States, the element also includes property of this State.

2.  Offenses of a nonmilitary nature may be the subject of administrative measures, nonjudicial punishment or court-martial provided that the person alleged to have committed the offense is subject to the Code and there is a nexus between the act or omission constituting the offense and the state military forces. Civilian criminal offenses may be subject to prosecution pursuant to 10 U.S.C. § 933 and 934 if that nexus is present.

3.  A proper civilian court has primary jurisdiction when an act or omission violates both the Code and state or federal criminal law. In such cases, a state court-martial or nonjudicial proceeding for punishment may be initiated only after the civilian authority has declined to prosecute or has dismissed charges, provided jeopardy has not attached. However, nothing in this Code precludes a commanding officer from taking administrative action even if the civilian authority exercises jurisdiction. Administrative remedies are not considered double jeopardy.

4.  Any member of the state military forces may be ordered to duty involuntarily for any purpose under the Code.

5.  In conducting prosecutions, a judge advocate shall coordinate with the Attorney General of the State of Nevada, similar officials in the State or county or equivalent prosecutorial authorities and appropriate municipal prosecutorial authorities to ensure that the judge advocate prosecutes with the cooperation of those local and state prosecutors. A commanding officer shall refer all suspected civilian offenses to a judge advocate who shall coordinate with the proper authorities when appropriate.

6.  Each person discharged from the Nevada National Guard who is later charged with having fraudulently obtained the discharge is, subject to NRS 412.376, subject to trial by court-martial on that charge and is after apprehension subject to this Code while in the custody of the military for that trial. Upon conviction of that charge the person is subject to trial by court-martial for all offenses under this Code committed before the fraudulent discharge.

7.  No person who has deserted from the Nevada National Guard may be relieved from amenability to the jurisdiction of this Code by virtue of a separation from any later period of service.
