1504 ARTICLE 41.

An. Code, sec. 7D. 1914, ch. 500.

52. In any case in which the Governor may issue a conditional pardon
to any person, the Governor, in the absence of any provision to the contrary
expressed therein, shall be the sole judge of whether or not the conditions
of said pardon have been breached, and the determination by the Governor,
that the conditions of such pardon have been violated by the person receiv-
ing the same, shall be final and not subject to review by any Court of this
State.

An. Code, sec. 7E. 1914, ch. 500.

53. In any case in which the Governor may release any person by a
conditional pardon and thereafter, on breach of any condition therein, re-
voke said conditional pardon, the person so released on such conditional
pardon shall be required, unless otherwise ordered by the Governor, to
serve the unserved portion of the sentence originally imposed upon him;
and said person, unless otherwise ordered by the Governor, shall not be con-
sidered as serving any portion of his original sentence during the time he
is released by virtue of such conditional pardon.

An. Code, sec. 7F. 1914, ch. 500. 1918, ch. 216.

54. It shall be the duty of said Commissioner to collect all informa-
tion that may aid him in determining the advisability of recommending to
the Governor the conditional pardon of any person sentenced under the
laws of Maryland, and whenever said Commissioner shall, upon examina-
tion, be of the opinion that both the interests of the State and the interests
of any prisoner sentenced under the laws of Maryland would be best sub-
served by a conditional pardon, it shall be the duty of said Commis-
sioner to lay before the Governor for his consideration those facts and
circumstances which induced his conclusion in that respect. It shall be
the duty of said Commissioner to investigate and to collect all information
that may aid him in determining the advisability of recommending to the
Governor the conditional pardon of all persons sentenced for one year or
more to the Maryland Penitentiary or to the Maryland House of Correction
upon the expiration of one-third of the term for which each of such persons
has been sentenced. And such investigation shall be made by the said
Commissioner, of his own initiative without the necessity of any applica-
tion by or in behalf of any of such persons. It shall be the duty of the
Governor to act upon the same within sixty days after the receipt of any
recommendations from the Parole Commissioner.

An. Code, sec. 7G. 1914, ch. 500.

55. Whenever the Governor shall conditionally pardon any person sen-
tenced under the laws of Maryland and shall prescribe as one of the condi-
tions of such pardon that said person shall continue under the supervision
of the Parole Commissioner during the term of such conditional pardon,
it shall be the duty of said Commissioner to supervise during said term
the life and conduct of the person so conditionally pardoned and to ascer-
tain and report to the Governor whether or not the conditions of said
