Mr. Carter, from the Committee on the Judiciary,
reported favorably, with proposed amendments,
Senate bill entitled an Act to repeal and re-enact
with amendments section 77, of Article 5, of the Code
of Public General Laws, title "Appeals and Errors,"
sub-title "Appeals in Criminal Cases."
AMENDMENT PROPOSED.
Strike out all after section I, and insert in lieu
thereof the following:
"Section 77. The parties to criminal proceedings
shall be entitled to bills of exceptions in the same
manner as in civil proceedings, and appeals from
judgments in criminal cases may be taken in the same
manner as in civil cases, but no appeal in a criminal
case shall stay execution of sentence unless the coun-
sel for the accused shall make oath that the appeal is
not taken for delay, and such appeal shall be heard
at the earliest convenient day after the same shall have
been transmitted to the Court of Appeals, and the
accused, upon taking such appeal, shall in all cases not
punishable by death or imprisonment in the Peni-
tentiary, be entitled to remain on bail, and in other
cases not capital, the court from which the appeal is
taken shall have the discretionary power to admit to
bail; provided, that nothing herein contained shall be
construed to prohibit the court from requiring ad-
ditional or greater bail, pending an appeal, than the
accused may already have given before conviction.
