ROBERT L. EHRLICH, JR., Governor
|
|
S.B. 796
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reference to "requirements" is substituted for the former reference to
"objectives", to reflect that former CJ § 8-102(a) now revised CJ § 8-104
imposes a duty.
The former phrase "of a county" is deleted as unnecessary in light of the
definition of "circuit court".
Except for the provisions as to grand jury forepersons (see revised CJ §
8-211), former Public Local Laws, Art. 1 [Allegany County], §§ 53-1
through 53-3 and former Public Local Laws, Art. 12 [Garrett County], §§
58-3 through 58-5 and 58-7, which provided details for selection in those
counties, are deleted as obsolete, the most current amendments being Ch.
158, Acts of 1951, and Ch. 837, Acts of 1914, respectively.
Defined term: "Circuit court" § 1-101
8-202. RULES.
THE COURT OF APPEALS MAY ADOPT RULES TO GOVERN THE PROVISIONS AND
IMPLEMENTATION OF JURY PLANS.
COMMITTEE NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former CJ § 8-201(a)(2).
The word "implementation" is substituted for the former word "operation".
The newly defined term "jury plan" is substituted for the former reference
to "plans formulated under this title", for consistency.
The former phrase "from time to time" is deleted as surplusage.
Defined term: "Jury plan" § 8-101
8-203. CHANGES.
(A) PROPOSAL OF CIRCUIT COURT..
(1) A CIRCUIT COURT MAY PROPOSE TO THE COURT OF APPEALS A
CHANGE TO THE CIRCUIT COURT'S JURY PLAN AT ANY TIME, BY FILING THE
PROPOSAL WITH THE COURT OF APPEALS.
(2) WITHIN 60 DAYS AFTER A CIRCUIT COURT FILES A PROPOSAL UNDER
THIS SUBSECTION, THE COURT OF APPEALS SHALL APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE THE
PROPOSAL.
(3) A PROPOSAL APPROVED UNDER THIS SUBSECTION IS EFFECTIVE:
(I) 61 DAYS AFTER A CIRCUIT COURT FILES THE PROPOSAL; OR
(II) ANY EARLIER DATE THAT THE COURT OF APPEALS SETS.
(B) ORDER OF COURT OF APPEALS.
(1) IF THE COURT OF APPEALS ORDERS A CIRCUIT COURT TO CHANGE
ITS JURY PLAN, THE CIRCUIT COURT SHALL DO SO.
