MARVIN MANDEL, Governor 395

(f). Nothing in this article shall be construed
to deprive any court MENTIONED IN SECTION 4(B)(2) OF
THIS ARTICLE of its authority TO APPOINT AN ATTORNEY
to represent an indigent person where there is a
conflict in legal representation in a matter involving
multiple defendants and one of the defendants is
represented by or through the Office of the Public
Defender, or where the Office of the Public Defender
declines to provide representation to an indigent
person entitled to representation under this Article.
REVISOR'S NOTE: The proposed amendment makes clear
the right of the District Court, as well as
other courts, to appoint counsel in
appropriate cases. The present authority for
the District Court is found in Art. 26,
§2-145(b)(8), which is proposed for repeal.
ARTICLE 70
13.
All deputies and under-clerks [of the clerks of
any of the courts in this State,] of the registers of
wills [,] AND THE Commissioner of the Land Office [and
Sheriffs], before they enter upon the duties of their
several offices, shall severally take and subscribe
the following oath: I, A.B., do swear that I will not
for lucre or malice delay any person applying to me
for any business belonging to the office I officiate
in, and that I will not directly or indirectly ask,
take, exact, demand or receive from or charge to any
such person to my own use any fee or reward whatsoever
for any services I may do as deputy of the said
office, and that in making out the office fees I will
not wittingly or willingly charge other or higher fees
than are allowed by law.
REVISOR'S NOTE: The provisions as to clerks and
sheriffs are no longer necessary here, since
they are contained in §2-104(b) of the Courts
and Judicial Proceedings Article set forth in
§1 of this bill.
ARTICLE 93
2-102.
