8-417. BALTIMORE CITY INVESTIGATIONS AND REPORTS.
(A) SCOPE OF SECTION.
THIS SECTION APPLIES ONLY TO A GRAND JURY FOR BALTIMORE CITY.
(B) INVESTIGATIONS.
IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER DUTY IMPOSED BY LAW, EACH GRAND JURY SHALL
CARRY OUT AN INVESTIGATION AS A JUDGE OF THE CIRCUIT COURT DIRECTS.
(C) REPORTS.
AT THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH A GRAND JURY SITS, THE GRAND JURY
SHALL SUBMIT TO THE JURY COMMISSIONER OF THE CIRCUIT COURT A REPORT ON
EACH OF ITS INVESTIGATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS.
COMMITTEE NOTE: Subsection (a) of this section is new and added to state
expressly the scope of this section.
Subsections (b) and (c) of this section are new language derived without
substantive change from former Public Local Laws, Art. 4 [Baltimore
City], § 7-8, as it related to investigations other than visits to correctional
facilities. The codification of the Baltimore City provision here is merely
for convenience and is not intended, by reenactment of a single provision,
to alter any power of a grand jury with regard to recommendations in other
counties. See, e.g., in re report of grand jury of Baltimore City, 152 Md. 616
(1927).
In subsection (b) of this section, reference to "a judge" is substituted for the
former reference to "the Judges of the Circuit Court for Baltimore City or
the court's designated visiting Judge", to clarify that any one of the active
judges may order an investigation. The substitution includes a designated
judge who, while designated, is deemed a judge of the court to which
designated.
Former Public Local Laws, Art. 4 [Baltimore City], § 7-8, as it related to
visits to correctional, detention, and penal facilities, is deleted as
unnecessary in light of current CS §§ 9-607 and 9-608, as to inquiry into
State correctional facilities and visits to local correctional facilities.
Defined term: "Jury commissioner" § 8-101
8-418. RESERVED.
8-119. RESERVED.
PART IV. TRIAL JURY.
