Abstract: The quantum Hamiltonian reduction on the OSp(1,2) super Kac-Moody algebra is described in the BRST formalism. Using a free field representation of the KM currents, the super Kac-Moody algebra is shown to be reduced to a superconformal one via the Hamiltonian reduction. This reduction is manifestly supersymmetric because of supersymmetric constraints imposed on the algebra.
