   (a) Under such regulations as may be issued pursuant to this chapter, a person subject to this article who is accused of an offense against civil authority may be delivered, upon request, to the civil authority for trial.

(b) When delivery under this Code section of a person undergoing sentence of a court-martial is made to any civil authority, the delivery, if followed by conviction in a civil tribunal, shall be held to interrupt the execution of the sentence of the court-martial. After having answered to the civil authorities for his offense, the offender shall be returned, upon the request of the adjutant general, to military custody for the completion of the court-martial sentence.
