RESOLVED, by the General Assembly, two thirds
of all the members
of each house concurring, That the following address be presented
to his excellency the governor:
To his Excellency the Governor of the State of Maryland,
The General Assembly of Maryland conceive it to be their
bounden duty, as guardians of the public interest and safety, to
call your attention to the conduct and habits of one of the members
of the judiciary.
It appears to the general assembly, from satisfactory
testimony,
that the intemperate habits of Zebulon Hollingsworth, of the sixth
judicial district, associate judge, is wholly incompatible with his
official character and usefulness, and that he has failed to give that
attendance on the courts which the nature of his appointment, and
the interest of the public absolutely require. You are therefore
requested immediately on the receipt of this address, to remove the
said Zebulon Hollingsworth from his office as associate judge. |
Passed Jan. 31, 1817.
For the removal
of Zebulon Hollingsworth. |
