HARRY HUGHES, Governor

3459

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, today I have vetoed Senate Bill 844.

This bill provides that tenants may not be made to move
out of the premises they are leasing if, prior to the
execution of an eviction notice, they pay the overdue rent,
the late fees, and any court costs incurred by the landlord.
Should the landlord be able to prove that more than three
judgments of restitution were issued against the tenant one
year prior to when the landlord filed the most recent
complaint, the above provisions would not apply.

House Bill 1303, which was enacted by the General
Assembly and signed by me on May 19, 1981, is similar and
accomplishes the same purpose.

Therefore it is unnecessary for me to sign Senate Bill
844.

Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor
