Duty of clerk
to correct
transcripts.
|
SECTION 1. Be it enacted
by the General Assembly
of Maryland, That if it shall appear by any court to
which any criminal case has been removed, under, and
by virtue of the Constitution or Laws of this State,
that the transcript of the record of said case so removed,
is not a true transcript of the record or proceedings had
in the court from which the said case had been removed,
that it shall be the duty of the said court, to which
the said case has been removed, forthwith to order and
direct that the said imperfect transcript shall be delivered
to the Clerk of the court from which said imperfect
transcript was sent, and it shall be the duty of the Clerk
of the court from which said case was removed, forthwith
on receiving such transcript so to him returned,
to correct the said transcript, noting at the end thereof
the corrections so made, or, to prepare a new transcript
of the said record, which shall be correct in all its parts;
and the court, to which any imperfect transcript is sent,
shall have the power to order the delivery of such transcript
so made, as often to the Clerk of the said court
from which the said case is removed, as may be necessary
to the perfection of said transcript, as a true copy
of the record in said case; and it shall be the duty of
the said court to which the said case is removed, to
proceed with the trial thereof, at as early a day as may
be: and all recognisances and other proceedings had in
the said court, to which the said case has been removed,
shall be as good and valid as if the transcript of the
said record, originally transmitted, had been correct in
all its parts.
