I have never seen this presumption advance by any court, any statute (although I see where the war powers people aka "Schroederites" are coming from).
However, all my study of martial law leads me to factually conclude that martial law historically, has never been used over the whole nation. One of those rebellion cases, either Dorr, or Shay, I cannot recall, gets into this matter. Even in the 1861-65 conflict, it was not over the whole of the United States.
