View this case - free  

Overview: Because defendants and their trial counsel were completely unaware a jury note was submitted to trial court, defendants could not have made a knowing and intelligent waiver of their right to be present, right to provide input for the response, or right to be represented by counsel during that critical stage. Right to speedy trial was not violated.

View this case - free  

Overview: It was error to find a juvenile waived counsel by not timely contacting the public defender, because the court did not comply with Md. Code Ann., Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 3-8A-20(b)(3) (2006) and Md. R. 11-106(b)(1), regarding the inquiry required before finding waiver, and counsel who represented the juvenile could not provide effective assistance.

Reier v. State Dep't of Assessments & Taxation, No. 29, September Term, 2006, COURT OF APPEALS OF MARYLAND, February 5, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: When a state employee was ordered reinstated to his position, his award of back pay was to include benefits. "Full back pay" in former Md. Code Ann., State Pers. & Pens. § 11-110(d)(1)(iii) encompassed state-offered benefits; it would be absurd to read the statute in the disjunctive as precluding benefits for wrongfully terminated employees.
