The Medical Mutual Liability Insurance Soci-
ety of Maryland was created in 1975 (Chapter
544, Acts of 1975). The Society provides for the
payment of indemnities to persons suffering inju-
ry arising out of physicians rendering or failing to
render professional services. The Society also pro-
vides the means whereby the physicians may ob-
tain insurance against liability for injury due to
the rendering or failure to render any professional
service subject to the limitations and immunities
mentioned. The organization is funded by premi-
ums established for the professional liability and
related lines of insurance sold to Maryland physi-
cians.
The Society is governed by an eleven-member
board of directors. Initially appointed by the
Governor, the directors now are elected by the
members of the Society in accordance with the
articles of incorporation and bylaws (Code 1957,
Art. 48A, secs. 547-555).

The Maryland Charter of 1632 empowered
Lord Baltimore to raise troops to put down in-
surrection or rebellion and to subdue enemies of
the province. Since that time the organization,
maintenance, and administration of the Maryland
Militia have been an integral part of the State's
functions. The present military establishment of
Maryland conforms to Title 32, U.S. Code and
regulations issued pursuant thereto, and to the
Militia Law of Maryland (Code 1957, Art. 65).
