(B)JURISDICTION AFTER DECEMBER 31, 1974.

EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN §12-307, AFTER DECEMBER 31,
1974, THE COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS HAS EXCLUSIVE
INITIAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION OVER ANY REVIEWABLE
JUDGMENT, DECREE, ORDER OR OTHER ACTION OF A CIRCUIT
COURT OR AN ORPHANS' COURT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 5, §5C (b) , as enacted by Ch. 56, Acts of
1973. In view of the language of proposed §§
12-301, 12-306, 12-307(b) and 12-308 (a),
language referring to specific appeal
provisions has been omitted, where possible.

Many of these will be repealed in any event.

other things, the removal of specific
