32 C.F.R. § 75.8 Claims of erroneous induction.
Title 32 - National Defense
(a) This section applies to any individual who claims that he is a conscientious objector and was either erroneously inducted, or erroneously assigned to combatant training or duty, for any of the following reasons: (1) Although determined to be a conscientious objector by a local board or appellate agency of the Selective Service System, his records failed to reflect classification as such. (2) He was denied a significant procedural right in the classification process by the Selective Service System. (3) Despite actual classification as a conscientious objector properly reflected in his records, he was nevertheless erroneously inducted, or assigned to combatant training or duty. Claims based on alleged erroneous determinations made on the merits of the case by the Selective Service System are not covered by this section. (See §75.4.) (b) Claims covered by paragraph (a) of this section will be referred to the Selective Service System without delay for investigation and ascertainment of the facts. Communication will be transmitted to the National Headquarters, Selective Service System, Washington, DC 20435. (1) If the Selective Service System advises that induction was in fact erroneous under paragraph (a)(1) or (a)(3) of this section, the claimant will be separated or assigned to noncombatant duties depending upon whether he was classified 1-O or 1-A-O. (2) If the Selective Service System advises that there was in fact a denial of a right or a significant procedural error in the evaluation of a claim under paragraph (a)(2) of this section, the induction will be considered erroneous and the individual discharged. (3) If the Selective Service System advises that any claim under paragraph (a) of this section is unfounded or makes a final determination adverse to any claim, the claimant will be so informed and returned to general duty. (c) Pending investigation and resolution of all claims covered by this section, a claimant will be assigned to duties which conflict as little as practicable with his asserted beliefs, insofar as is consistent with the effectiveness and efficiency of the military forces.
