After Downey and Dawson are found guilty of the non-existent charge of "conduct unbecoming a Marine," the judge immediately renders a sentence of time served and a dishonorable discharge, skipping the entire sentencing portion of the trial, which is referred to as "extenuation and mitigation" in the military. After both sides present testimony and closing arguments, the members (jurors) would deliberate upon and determine the sentence, not the judge.
