The Unsatisfied Claims and Judgment Fund Board consists of the
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles and the Insurance Commissioner, ex
officio; and four representatives of insurers appointed annually by
the Insurance Commissioner.

The Board administers the Unsatisfied Claim and Judgment Fund,
which, is to be created from the following sources: (1) an $8.00 regis-
tration fee paid on April I or May 1, 1958, for each uninsured motor
vehicle; (2) a $1.00 registration fee paid on April I or May 1, 1958,
for each insured motor vehicle; (3) O.5% of the net direct written
premiums of each insurer for the year 1958. Beginning on December
30, 1959 the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles shall estimate annually
the amount necessary to enable the Fund to pay claims against it for
the following year. If there is a deficiency, he is to make it up as
follows: (1) the insurers are to pay a sum not greater than O.5%
of the aggregate net direct written premiums of all insurers during
the preceding calendar year, or 10% of the estimated deficiency,
whichever is smaller; (2) persons registering uninsured motor vehicles
are to pay a fee arrived at by dividing the remaining deficiency by
the number of uninsured motor vehicles registered during the pre-
ceding registration, year. Qualified persons who have suffered property
damage or personal injury in motor vehicle accidents involving unin-
sured motorists and who have recovered judgments of more than $100,
but who have been unable to collect the sums due. may apply to the
Court for an order directing payment from the Fund. The maximum
amounts payable from the Fund are (1) $10,000 for injury or death
of one person in any one accident; (2) $20,000 for injury or death of
more than one person in any one accident; and (3) $5,000 for damage
to property in any one accident. Persons who have failed to pay
judgments may not hold a driver's license or register a car in Mary-
land until they have reimbursed the Fund with interest (Code 1951,
1957 supp., Art. 66 1/2, secs. 145A-DD).
