Penalties.

Sec. 18. If any person shall deem himself ag-
grieved by the refusal of the officers of registra-
tion to register him as a qualified voter by reason
of the decision of said officer that he has not the
requisite qualifications of age, citizenship or resi-
dence, or is disqualified under the provisions of
the third and filth sections of the first article of
the Constitution or by the refusal to register him
as a qualified voter for any other cause, or of the
striking of his name from the lift of qualified
voters for any cause, he shall have the right to
appeal from such decision or action to the Judge
of the Circuit Court for the County in which he
resides or applies for registration, or to the Judge
of the Court of Common Pleas or Judge of the
Circuit Court for Baltimore City in case the party
resides or applies for registration in the City of
Baltimore, and said Judge shall forthwith hear
and determine said appeal, and in case he shall
determine that the party so appealing is entitled
to be registered or restored to the list as a qualified
voter, he shall so certify to the officer of registra-
tion from whose decision the appeal was taken,
and the said officer shall thereupon register the
said party as a qualified voter.

In force.

Sec. 2. And be it enacted, That this Act shall
