• concluding that limitations on the right to cross-examine witnesses do not necessarily constitute a due process violation in the context of USMMA disciplinary proceedings
• finding that the USMMA satisfied procedural due process despite limitations on cross- examination because the accused “was given the opportunity to undermine [the witness’s] credibility in a number of different ways”
• applying Wasson to an APA challenge to the disenrollment of a USMMA Midshipman
• Superintendent’s multiple roles as “prosecutor, fact-finder, and appeals court” do not render sexual assault hearing per se unconstitutional
• Superintendent entitled to weigh the evidence where plaintiff contradicts complainant’s testimony and presents witnesses supporting his version of events
• “[D]ue process does not mandate the use of all of the protections of a criminal trial in this type of disciplinary proceeding.”
