Which document confirms detailing authority, arraignment date, and trial dates?

• A. Charge sheet
• B. Confirmation memo
• C. Docketing conference notes
• D. Convening order

Answer: (B)

The essential idea is identifying the document that officially confirms who has authority to proceed and fixes the key dates for arraignment and trial. A confirmation memo serves this purpose: it formally verifies the appointing or approving authority and records the arraignment date along with upcoming trial dates, providing an official reference for all parties involved. This makes the memo the go-to document for confirming both who can act and when hearings will occur.

Other documents play related roles but don’t combine these confirmations in the same authoritative way: a charge sheet lists the charges; docketing conference notes focus on scheduling and procedural steps; a convening order establishes the court-martial and its general terms, but the explicit confirmation of authority and the specific arraignment and trial dates are typically captured in the confirmation memo.
