Nalls & Melvin v. State

McDONALD, J.,

concurring and dissenting, which ADKINS, J., joins.

For the reasons set forth in my dissenting opinion in Szwed v. State, 438 Md. 1, 89 A.3d 1143, 2014 WL 1613414 (2014), I disagree with the plurality’s application of Rule 4-246(b) in these cases, although I agree with its holding that the contemporaneous objection rule applies. I also agree with Judge Watts’ proposed disposition of these cases. I concur in the Court’s disposition of the issue as to the sufficiency of the evidence as to one of the counts in the Nalls case.

Judge ADKINS has advised that she joins this opinion.
