Default Martial Law

So, I toy with CONUS-based campaign ideas every once in a while, and the following question occurred to me today. I figured it would be more interesting to ask around here than start digging through my source books and adventure module.

Would areas under MilGov control be in a perpetual state of de facto martial law?

Would CivGov-controlled territories attempt to rebuild and maintain some sort of civil law system, if only to set themselves apart from MilGov cantonments?

I can see a return to the O.G. circuit court system, with itinerant judges riding (sometimes literally) between settlements. Escorting or intercepting said circuit judge would make for a decent adventure starter.
