RMKS/1. Per references (a) through (h), the Navy is required to report
offender criminal history data to the Naval Criminal Investigative Service
(NCIS) for forwarding to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for
inclusion in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) criminal history
database. Reference (a) ensures Navy compliance with the Gun Control Act of
1968. This NAVADMIN ensures Navy compliance with SECNAV and DOD requirements
as directed in references (b) and (c), which require accurate and timely
reporting of Arrest and Institution Fingerprint Cards (FD-249) and Final
Disposition Reports (R-84). Reporting requirements under this NAVADMIN are
supplemental to the reporting requirements associated with the Gun Control
Act of 1986. Reference (a) is not superseded by this NAVADMIN.
2. Policy.
a. Military Personnel. An FD-249 will be used to electronically submit
fingerprints for all service members investigated by NCIS or Commander, Navy
Installations Command (CNIC) law enforcement personnel when, based on a
probable cause standard determined in conjunction with the Servicing Staff
Judge Advocate (SJA) or other legal advisor, probable cause exists to believe
that a service member has committed an offense listed in enclosure 2 of
reference (c). Fingerprints will be taken at the time of apprehension,
arrest, or the subject interview. An R-84 will be submitted upon final
disposition of the case, in accordance with paragraph 3 of this NAVADMIN.
(1) Submission of an FD-249 and an R-84 is not required when an investigation
is conducted solely by afloat command personnel, tenant command personnel, or
installation command non-law enforcement personnel, and the final disposition
of the case results in administrative action or non-judicial punishment.
(2) Submission of an FD-249 is required for all service members upon
preferral of charges with a view toward court-martial, if not previously
submitted. This applies whether NCIS, CNIC law enforcement personnel, or
afloat, tenant or installation command personnel conduct the investigation.
Preferred court-martial charges are reflected on DD Form 458 of May 2000.
b. Civilians. An FD-249 will be used to electronically submit fingerprints
for all civilians investigated by NCIS or CNIC law enforcement personnel
when, based on a probable cause standard determined in conjunction with the
Servicing SJA or other legal advisor, probable cause exists to believe that a
civilian has committed an offense equivalent to those listed in enclosure 2
of reference (c). Fingerprints will be taken at the time of apprehension,
arrest, or subject interview. An R-84 will be submitted upon final
disposition of the case, in accordance with paragraph 3 of this NAVADMIN.
The requirements of this paragraph apply to civilians employed by the Armed
Forces and civilians accompanying the Armed Forces subject to the Military
Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act while outside of the United States, as
detailed in reference (d).
c. Foreign Law Enforcement Organizations. An FD-249 will be used to
electronically submit fingerprints for all military personnel, DOD employees,
DOD contractors, and their respective dependents being investigated by
foreign law enforcement organizations when, based on a probable cause
standard determined in conjunction with the Servicing SJA or other legal
advisor, probable cause exists to believe that the subject has committed an
offense equivalent to those listed in enclosure 2 of reference (c), and the
foreign investigation has been made available to NCIS or the subjects
command. An R-84 will be submitted upon final disposition of the case, in
accordance with paragraph 3 of this NAVADMIN.
3. Responsibilities.
a. Director, Shore Readiness (OPNAV N46). OPNAV N46 will update OPNAVINST
5530.14E to include criminal justice information reporting requirements as
outlined in this NAVADMIN and in reference (a).
b. CNIC.
(1) When required by paragraph 2 of this NAVADMIN, an FD-249 must be
submitted to NCIS electronically using a Live Scan device.
(2) When an FD-249 has been submitted by CNIC law enforcement personnel, an
R-84 must be submitted as soon as practicable, but no later than 5 days after
notification of the final disposition of a case. The R-84 should be
completed per the directions outlined in enclosure 4 of reference (c). If
NCIS submitted the FD-249, NCIS will submit the R-84.
(3) CNIC will ensure all CNIC law enforcement personnel are aware of the
reportable offenses listed in enclosure 2 of reference (c), have access to
Live Scan electronic fingerprint technology, and understand the submission
directions outlined in enclosure 4 of reference (c).
c. Afloat and Ashore Navy Commanding Officers.
(1) Whenever an FD-249 is submitted for a case, provide final disposition
information to the applicable submitting entity, either NCIS or CNIC law
enforcement personnel, within 5 calendar days of adjudication to ensure an R-
84 is submitted within the required timeline.
(2) If an FD-249 has not been previously submitted and a service member has
charges preferred with a view toward court-martial, escort the service member
to NCIS or CNIC law enforcement personnel for submission of an FD-249.
(3) If a foreign law enforcement organization makes an investigation
available to the command and when, based on a probable cause standard
determined in conjunction with the Servicing SJA or other legal advisor,
probable cause exists to believe the subject has committed an offense
equivalent to those listed in enclosure 2 of reference (c), escort the
subject to NCIS or CNIC law enforcement personnel for submission of an FD-
249.
(4) If an R-84 has been submitted for a case, ensure that any subsequent
administrative or non-judicial appellate action that affects the original
case disposition is forwarded to the applicable submitting entity, either
NCIS or CNIC law enforcement personnel, for a corrected submission.
