Gilmore v. State
Court of Appeals of Maryland
Decided November 9, 1971No. [No. 26, September Term, 1971.]PublishedCited by 32 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtSmith, J.
We shall here affirm convictions of murder in the first degree and robbery. The death sentence was imposed on the murder charge which brought the appeal to this Court. The sentence for robbery was 10 years to be served consecutively to the murder sentence. The trial judge said:
“This may seem to be an incongruity and a contradiction in and of itself, but the Court is directing that the sentence on the robbery indictment be served consecutively in the event that the death penalty imposed under Indictment No. 2789 should hereafter be commuted to life imprisonment.”
