section applies to all members of the active militia who have been lawfully ordered to any type of state duty pursuant to this code or any type of duty pursuant to Title of the United States Code. For purposes of jurisdiction of this section, receipt of a lawful verbal or written order to report shall constitute sufficient evidence for purposes of establishing jurisdiction, however, jurisdiction may be contested as provided in the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, or the Manual for Courts-Martial, California.

(2) This

section does not apply to offenses committed by members of the active militia who were not in a duty status or not ordered to a duty status at the time of the offense or omission, unless it is alleged that the member engaged in an affirmative act or omission that established a connection between the offense and service in the active militia. Jurisdiction shall exist in all circumstances regardless of where the offense was committed.

section precludes any other military or civilian authority from exercising its jurisdiction over any act or omission that violates any local, state, or federal law. Pursuant to Sections 100, 101, 102, and 103, and

section is as provided for in
