A quick definition of charter member:

A charter member is someone who was a member of an organization when it was first created or when its charter was adopted. They have all the same rights as other members, including the ability to make decisions and vote on important matters. However, some organizations may have different types of membership, such as nonvoting or limited members, who do not have the same level of participation. In military law, a charter member may also refer to someone assigned to a court-martial to determine guilt and punishment.

A more thorough explanation:

A charter member is a member who was part of an organization or assembly when it was first established or granted a charter. They have full rights to participate in the organization, including making, debating, and voting on motions, except for any rights reserved for certain classes of membership.

For example, if a group of people decide to start a new club, the first members who join and help establish the club are considered charter members. They have a special status as founders of the club and may have certain privileges or responsibilities that other members do not have.

In military law, a charter member may also refer to a person assigned to a court-martial to determine guilt and punishment.
