and (2) the Maryland Register, a bi-weekly publi-
cation that serves as a temporary supplement to
COMAR. MIRS, a full-text retrieval system for
State statutes, regulations, and other documents,
is also administered and directed by the Division.
The Register prints all proposed, adopted, and
emergency regulations of the State's administra-
tive agencies, notices of public hearings and meet-
ings, the full text of all opinions of the Attorney
General, proposed and adopted rules of court,
hearing calendars of the Courts of Appeal, synop-
ses of all legislation proposed, enacted, and vetoed
each legislative session of the General Assembly,
all Executive Orders, all gubernatorial appoint-
ments, notices of bids requested and awards an-
nounced on all State contracts valued above
$25,000, and any other document the General As-
sembly requires or the Joint Committee on Ad-
ministrative, Executive and Legislative Review
(AELR) permits to be published. An index to the
Register is published quarterly and is cumulative
|
throughout the year. All adopted regulations, and
Executive Orders that are generally permanent in
nature, are periodically taken from the pages of
the Register and integrated into COMAR by
means of published supplements.
With the exception of emergency regulations,
administrative regulations are not effective until
notice of their adoption is published in the Mary-
land Register. The text of any document appear-
ing in the Maryland Register and COMAR is the
only official, valid, and enforceable text of that
document. Any document appearing in the Mary-
land Register and COMAR is accorded judicial
notice in all court proceedings.
Subscription information and free informational
brochures pertaining to both the Maryland Regis-
ter and COMAR may be obtained by writing or
calling the Division's offices.

The Attorney General is elected by the people for a term of four years (Const. 1867, Art. V, sec. 1).
The Attorney General may be re-elected with no limit being placed on the number of terms that may be
served. The Attorney General must be a citizen of the State and a qualified voter and must have resided
and practiced law in Maryland for a period of at least ten years prior to election. The date on which the
Attorney General takes office is unspecified either in the Constitution or in the Annotated Code, but
customarily it occurs on December 20 following the election. The Attorney General receives an annual
salary of $72,500. The Attorney General heads the Office of the Attorney General, formerly known as
the State Law Department, which was established in 1916 (Chapter 560, Acts of 1916).
