What would happen if a vet wore his military uniform to divorce court?

My ex tends to think that he can still wear his military uniforms anywhere he wants. He has been out for 3 years. However, the DOD "law" states he cant wear them? What happens to him if he does wear them?

Actually he can wear the uniform as an honorably dishcarged Veteran. And he may be able to return to the service depending on the type of diability and if he has overcome it at all and if the waiting period has expired. There is no DOD law and military regulations do not apply to the civilian community. This person earned the right to wear the uniform so I would never say it is wrong as long as it is in good taste and doesnt dishonor the service. Now, this sounds like a ticked off ex spouse that is mad at her ex spouse because he might get a step up for his service instead of the usual women getting the step up just because it is a woman. Most judges look at cases on merit not on how the two parties are dressed. just because a person serves in the military does not make them any better or worse. Good luck with your future but let the man wear his uniform proudly.What would happen if a vet wore his military uniform to divorce court?From my understanding, the only reason anyone (either active or retired) can wear their military uniform in town is if they're attending a military function, or funeral.

Wearing it to divorce court to get the attention, or sympathy of the judge in hopes it will help his case is immature, disrespectful and disgusting.
Wearing a military uniform is not illegal in civilian law. Anyone can do it. It's not impersonation unless you are actually impersonating, like filling out government forms which ask whether you're an active duty soldier in the affirmative.What would happen if a vet wore his military uniform to divorce court?He can not wear his uniform I'm not sure what the penalty would be but he should just wear a suit and maybe a pin representing his branch of serviceWhat would happen if a vet wore his military uniform to divorce court?
Honorably discharged vets may wear the uniform any time they like.
If he has been out for 3 years he can't, it's impersonating a US Soldier!What would happen if a vet wore his military uniform to divorce court?
it is hard to say but what he should be wearing is a regular suit
