Ref: (a) Judge Advocate General Manual, Chapter XIII

1. Purpose. To promulgate information and instructions pertaining to the entrance of civil police officers into areas under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent, US Naval Academy.

2. Background. Jurisdiction within the boundaries of the Annapolis Sub-Area activities under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent, U.S. Naval Academy, including the Naval Station, NSRDC, ECAC, Radio Transmitting Facility, Annapolis, is vested in the U.S. Government by virtue of the Constitution of the United States, Article ninety-six of the laws of Maryland and interpretations of both the foregoing sources by the supreme court of the United States and the Judge Advocate General of the Navy. The Legislature of Maryland ceded exclusive jurisdiction over such land "as has been or may be hereafter acquired"..by the United States, subject to the reservation by the State of Maryland of the right to serve civil and criminal process. The right to serve "process" does not include the power to make arrests, nor to pursue fugitives through the area under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent, U.S. Naval Academy, to make an arrest, except pursuant to a warrant as authorized in paragraph 4.

3. Policy. Reference (a) sets for the conditions under which warrants of arrest and civil process may be served in the naval establishment. No one shall be permitted to use an area under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent as an asylum to avoid arrest or other accountability to the Courts of Maryland, however, since jurisdiction within the boundaries of the Annapolis Sub-Area activities under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent is vested in the U.S. Government, civil police officers may not enter said area indiscriminately to arrest and remove persons therefrom or to perform interrogations. The legal and proper means of obtaining custody of personnel within said area is by the use of a warrant of arrest, issued by a competent court. Such warrant, and any other civil process will normally be honored by Commanding Officers upon presentation by civil police officers. Cooperation with civil authorities shall be rendered to the maximum extent commensurate with command responsibility.

4. Action

a. Marine sentries, Naval Station Police Patrolmen, and Naval Academy Security Policemen will deny entrance to people and their vehicles approaching any gates when being followed by you.

b. If you want to request entrance to arrest an offender who has escaped, the Marine Sentry or Naval Academy Security Policeman will ask the Marine officer and Naval sergeant or police to assist you to find and identify the offender. When the offender is located, the Marine officer and Naval sergeant or police will examine their identity and give the information to you so that you can obtain a warrant in order to arrest the offender. If you want to issue a summons to show up in court, you will be allowed to do so in accordance with subparagraph 4c.

c. When you present a warrant, subpoena or any civil process, you will be directed to the Naval judge advocate or officer, who will accommodate you legally after consultation with a judge advocate. Warrants, subpoenas, and other civil process will be handled during ordinary business hours only, except in emergency situations which requires immediate action to prevent flight or to protect life or property. If a warrant of arrest is determined to be proper, the offender will be turned over to your custody.
