1Opinion of the Court

EYLER, JAMES R., J.

The question before us is one of statutory interpretation. We must determine the nature and extent of the protection from tort liability enjoyed by employees of County Boards of Education, pursuant to Maryland Code (2006 Repl. Vol.) § 5-518 of the Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article (“CJ”). We conclude that the statute does not provide employees with immunity from suit but rather provides that county boards must protect an employee from execution on a judgment against the employee. We shall affirm the judgment.
