WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor                        Ch. 3

SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION, a judge of the court [shall] MAY
not act as AN attorney [or solicitor] AT LAW in a [law, equity,]
CIVIL or criminal [court] MATTER during [his] A term of office.

(B) This section does not apply [in]:

(1)  IN Harford [or] COUNTY;

(2)  IN Montgomery [counties] COUNTY;

(3)  IN BALTIMORE CITY, TO A JUDGE OF THE COURT WHILE
PRACTICING LAW BEFORE ANY COURT OF THE STATE EXCEPT AN ORPHANS'
COURT; OR

COURT WHILE PRACTICING LAW IN CONNECTION WITH A CASE THAT IS:

(I)  OUTSIDE THE JURISDICTION OF ORPHANS' COURT;
AND

(II)  UNRELATED TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF AN
ESTATE OR GUARDIANSHIP.

REVISOR'S NOTE: Ch. ___, Acts of 1989, which enacted the

Business Occupations Article, also amended this
section to strike a former cross-reference to "Article
10, § 30" and, instead, to incorporate the second
sentence and the reference to a judge of Orphans'
Court in Prince George's County in the first sentence
of former Art. 10, § 30.

The Business Occupations Article Review Committee
notes that, under Canon 41(1)(b) of Md. Rule 1231, one
holding a judicial position in a court of limited
jurisdiction is allowed to engage in the part-time
practice of law under certain circumstances.

SECTION 5. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act may not
be construed to affect any valid seal that a licensee or permit
holder holds before October 1, 1989.

SECTION 6. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the revisor's
notes and catchlines contained in this Act are not law and may
not be considered to have been enacted as a part of this Act.

SECTION 7. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That nothing in this
Act affects the term of office of an appointed or elected member
of any department, board, commission, committee, agency, or other
unit. An individual who is a member of a unit on the effective
date of this Act shall remain a member for the balance of the
term to which appointed or elected, unless the member sooner
