P.R. Laws tit. 25, § 2709
Every record of trial by special court-martial, in which there has been a finding of guilty and a sentence, the appellate review which is not otherwise provided for by § 2708 of this title, shall be examined in the Office of the Judge Advocate of Puerto Rico. If any part of the findings or sentence is found unsupported in law or if the Judge Advocate of Puerto Rico so directs, the record shall be reviewed by the Military Court of Review in accordance with § 2708 of this title. If the findings or sentence, or both, in a case of court-martial have not been finally reviewed by the Military Court of Review, the latter may be set aside or modified in whole or in part by the Judge Advocate of Puerto Rico on the ground of new evidence found, court fraud, lack of jurisdiction on the accused or the offense or prejudicial error to the substantial rights of the accused.
