1966                             LAWS OF MARYLAND                        [CH. 848

(2) Provided, however, that any such Judge who voluntarily re-
tires from active service after reaching the age of 60 years and
before reaching the age of 70 years, and has resumed the practice of
law, shall not be entitled to the increases in pension provided by this
section but shall be paid a pension at the rate provided before the
passage of this section. A Judge who retires and accepts the pension
provided by this section shall not during the period of such accept-
ance engage in the practice of law. A Judge who has been receiving
the benefits provided by this section and who decided DECIDES to en-
gage in the practice of law may notify the Governor and Comptroller
of the Treasury of such fact, and on the indicated date of his engaging
in the practice of law his benefits under this section shall cease and no
longer be paid; and such a Judge shall never again be paid such
benefits. In the event that a retired Judge who has never been paid
benefits under this section and who has been engaged in the practice
of law should thereafter relinquish such practice and notify the
Governor and Comptroller of the Treasury of such fact, then, from
and after the date of such notification, the Judge shall be entitled to
all the benefits provided by this section. An elected Judge who be-
cause of incapacitating illness is required to resign his position prior
to reaching his 60th birthday shall be entitled to benefits under the
provisions of this section, but in no event in a sum greater than was
provided in this section at the time he resigned; and except for a
Judge who has resigned or who resigns because of incapacitating
illness, no other judge who has resigned or who resigns prior to
reaching his 60th birthday is entitled to any benefits under the pro-
visions of this section.

[(2)] (3) The widow of every elected municipal judge who dies
in active service shall be paid one half of the pension or salary the
judge would have received if his service had been terminated by re-
tirement and for this purpose only, the age of the judge is not to be
considered; the widow of any judge eligible for retirement pension
who dies after retiring shall be paid one half of the pension or salary
to which her husband was entitled at the time of his death. In deter-
mining the amount which any widow is entitled to be paid after
June 1, 1963, the pension of the deceased Judge shall be calculated
at the rates prescribed by sub-subsection (1) of this subsection, as
of that date, notwithstanding that such Judge may have died prior
thereto. In each instance the pension is to be paid to the widow
until her remarriage or death. The provisions of this section shall
not apply in the case of a widow who was married to the judge for a
period less than three years and to a retired judge for a period less
than three years before his retirement.

(d). The judges shall devote their full time to the duties of said
court. They shall not maintain an office for the practice of law nor
shall they have an interest in any said office, whether conducted in
whole or in part by themselves or other; neither shall they allow
their names to be used in connection with any law office nor shall
they profit directly or indirectly from the practice of law by whom-
soever conducted or operated.
