Chapter 2 Crimes and Punishments
Article 43. Escape from Custody, Detention, or Prison
(a) If any service member escapes from custody or detention, or tries to pave the way for his release by unlawfully influencing another person, he shall be subject to confinement from three to six months.
(b) If any service member, currently in confinement based on the conviction of a court, escapes from jail while he has not been dismissed or discharged, he shall be subject to confinement from six months to one year.
If a convicted person escapes from custody and flees the State of enforcement, that State may, after consultation with the Court, request the person's surrender from the State in which the person is located pursuant to existing bilateral or multilateral arrangements, or may request that the Court seek the person's surrender, in accordance with Part 9. It may direct that the person be delivered to the State in which he or she was serving the sentence or to another State designated by the Court.
