[JURIST] Pfc. Lynndie England [Wikipedia profile] will be back in court next week for a second Article 32 hearing [JAG backgrounder] in advance of a possible new trial at Fort Hood [JURIST report].

Her latest Article 32 hearing – broadly similar to a civilian grand jury hearing – gets underway Tuesday. AP has more.
