Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 974 - Juvenile Law - Transfer of Cases to Juvenile Court.
This bill adds a preponderance of the evidence standard to a court's determination of

Senate Bill 428, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 974.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
