Court of Appeals of Maryland

The Court of Appeals of Maryland is the highest court in the state, similar to the Supreme Court at the national level. It reviews decisions made by lower courts to ensure the law is applied correctly. This court primarily handles appeals on significant legal issues, including constitutional matters and interpretations of state law. It is composed of seven judges, who make decisions that can impact Maryland's legal landscape. Their rulings are final, meaning they cannot be appealed to any other court in Maryland, making their interpretations critically important for the state's judicial system.
