- W33593068 abstract "This article is about the application of the liberty interest identified in Lawrence v. Texas to the military. Currently, military courts protect consensual, opposite-sex sodomy, but sustain prosecutions when opposite-sex sodomy is accompanied by a separately punishable offense. It is an open question as to whether same-sex sodomy enjoys the same protection, particularly in light of the military's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy, or whether the prosecution of sodomy only when accompanied by a separately punishable offense is valid. Legal scholarship has largely ignored the precise nature of the military interests used to justify the prosecution of sodomy in these circumstances. I conclude that military interests derived from separately punishable offenses, as well as any interests provided by the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy, are insufficient to overcome the liberty interest identified in Lawrence. As a result, these interests are also insufficient to support the continued prohibition of same-sex sodomy in the military. Within the comment, I aim to make three contributions in support of this argument. First, I argue that the military interests used to justify sodomy prosecutions are insufficient to support the criminalization of same-sex sodomy even though the military may generally proscribe sodomy. Second, I suggest that equal protection considerations intimated by Lawrence and its progeny cast doubt on military interests that would punish same-sex conduct substantially more than similar opposite-sex sodomy, particularly in light of Limon v. Kansas, a companion case to Lawrence. Third, I observe that regardless of whether same-sex sodomy receives explicit protection from military courts, the absence of military interests specific to the prohibition of sodomy effectively give sodomy protection through an apparent aversion to the continued prosecution of sodomy by military prosecutors. I hope my analysis will help in the debate over the military court system's application of Lawrence to the military." @default.
