A letter of reprimand is a United States Department of Defense procedure involving a letter to an employee or soldier from his or her superior that details the wrongful actions of the person and the punishment that can be expected. A Formal Letter of Reprimand is one in which a copy of the letter is kept on record. In military contexts, a formal letter of reprimand can be career ending, even without prescribed punishments, because it makes it difficult to secure advancements in rank or to enjoy the respect of one's peers. In legal contexts, a letter of reprimand is sometimes called a ''letter of admonition''. It is the lowest form of attorney discipline under the Code of Professional Responsibility. ==United States Armed Forces== The Manual for Court Martial, R.C.M. 306(c)(2), states:
The order of severity for formal written administrative action is: * a letter of counsel (least severe), * a memorandum of concern, * a letter of admonishment, * a letter of reprimand. A letter of reprimand may be issued in lieu of punishment under Article 15 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. A formal letter of reprimand is placed in the service member's permanent personnel record. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「letter of reprimand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
