Graham now introducing an "in between" process, S.AMND.2524, amending S.AMND.2515.This gives all Guantanamo detainees the right to challenge the determination of "enemy combatant" status, on a case by case basis (one time), in a Federal Court. That is, the Federal Court will check the military commission/military tribunal process, and render an opinion as to whether the process has been properly applied, and the status ("enemy combatant," "civilian," "irregular combatant") is correct.
The object is to make sure the detainees are foreign national enemy combatants, and to deny the writ of habeus corpus to people being found of that status by a military tribunal -- agreed by a Federal court.
Very interesting dividing line between military law and civilian law, and it is being defined from several angles at this time. SCOTUS opinion is the impetus for this Senate action, for example.
which court will hear these appeals? is it the circuit court in Florida?
