  • Die Entscheidung des Obersten Gerichts der Vereinigten Staaten im Fall Hamdan v. Rumsfeld ist das dritte Präzedenzurteil zu Maßnahmen der US-Regierung im so genannten „Krieg gegen den Terror“ betreffend Personen, die als ungesetzliche Kombattanten festgehalten werden. Sie verbietet die Praxis der US-Regierung, die prozessualen und materiellen Rechte der Gefangenen massiv einzuschränken, und stellt fest, dass für Sondergerichte in Form von „Militärkommissionen“ keine Rechtsgrundlage besteht.

  • Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, 548 U.S. 557 (2006), is a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that military commissions set up by the Bush administration to try detainees at Guantanamo Bay violated both the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) and the Geneva Conventions ratified by the U.S. Hamdan raises several legal issues: Whether the United States Congress may pass legislation preventing the Supreme Court from hearing the case of an accused combatant before his military commission takes place; whether the special military commissions established by the executive branch violated federal law (including the UCMJ and treaty obligations); and whether courts can enforce the articles of the Geneva Conventions. An unusual aspect of the case was an amicus brief filed by Senators Jon Kyl and Lindsey Graham, which presented an "extensive colloquy" added to the Congressional record as evidence that "Congress was aware" that the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 would strip the Supreme Court of jurisdiction to hear cases brought by the Guantanamo detainees. Because these statements were not included in the December 21 debate at the time, Emily Bazelon of Slate magazine has argued that their brief was an attempt to mislead the court. After hearing oral arguments on March 28, 2006, on June 29, 2006, the Court issued a 5–3 decision holding that it had jurisdiction; that the administration lacked either the constitutional power or congressional authorization to establish these particular military commissions; that, absent such authority, the military commissions had to comply with the "ordinary laws" of the U.S. and of war, which include the UCMJ and the Geneva Conventions incorporated therein; and that Hamdan's trial, having violated the rights and procedures under both bodies of law, was illegal.

  • Hamdan v. Rumsfeld was de rechtszaak voor het Hooggerechtshof van de Verenigde Staten in Washington D.C. van Salim Hamdan, de bodyguard en chauffeur van Osama bin Laden die sinds 2001 op Guantánamo Bay zonder aanklacht gevangen wordt gehouden, tegen Donald Rumsfeld, minister van Defensie van de Verenigde Staten, onder president George W. Bush. Op 29 juni 2006 bepaalde het gerecht met een meerderheid van 5 tegen 3 dat de door de regering Bush opgezette speciale militaire tribunalen voor de gevangenen van Guantánamo Bay niet toegestaan waren onder de bepalingen van het Amerikaanse militaire recht (Amerikaanse Uniform Code of Military Justice) en het internationaal recht (Conventie van Genève, 1949). Hamdan werd bijgestaan door Charles D. Swift, advocaat van de Amerikaanse marine, en Neal Katyal, professor in de rechten aan de Emory University School of Law. De zaak Hamdan v. Rumsfeld is beschreven in de thriller The Challenge (2008) van . In augustus 2008 kocht de Amerikaanse acteur en filmmaker George Clooney de rechten van het boek. (nl)
