WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor                        Ch. 5

(3) If an appeal is taken from a final judgment, more
than 120 days after the receipt by the clerk of the lower court
of a mandate of the Court of Appeals or the Court of Special
Appeals evidencing the dismissal of the appeal, the affirmance of
the judgment, the entry of judgment pursuant to [Maryland Rule
875] THE MARYLAND RULES, or the modification of the judgment
without the award of a new trial. For the purposes of this
section, an appeal stricken out pursuant to [Maryland Rule 813]
THE MARYLAND RULES, or voluntarily abandoned, is deemed not to
have been taken. However, if the appeal so stricken out or
voluntarily abandoned was taken by the defendant, the plaintiff
may abandon the proceeding within 120 days after the appeal is
abandoned or stricken out, provided taking has not occurred.
