Md. Gen. Provi. 1-324

As amended through November 13, 2024

Rule 1-324 - [Effective 1/1/2025] Notification of Orders, Rulings, and Court Proceedings

(a) Notification by Clerk. Upon entry on the docket of (1) any order or ruling of the court not made in the course of a hearing or trial or (2) the scheduling of a hearing, trial, or other court proceeding not announced on the record in the course of a hearing or trial, the clerk shall send a copy of the order, ruling, or notice of the scheduled proceeding to all parties entitled to service under Rule 1-321, unless the record discloses that such service has already been made.

Committee note: In many counties, the Assignment Office is under the purview of the County Administrative Judge. In those counties, in accordance with the directives of the County Administrative Judge, an employee of the Assignment Office, rather than the Clerk, sends some of the notifications required by this Rule.

(b) Inapplicability of Rule. This Rule does not apply to show cause orders and does not abrogate the requirement for notice of a summary judgment set forth in Rule 2-501(f).

Md. Gen. Provi. 1-324

This Rule is in part derived from former Rule 1219 and is in part new.
