1Opinion of the Court

ROBERT M. BELL, Judge.

This case presents two questions for our resolution, namely, whether the failure to hold, or waive, a preliminary hearing is jurisdictional and whether, under the facts sub judice, hearsay evidence should have been admitted. When it addressed these issues, the Court of Special Appeals answered both questions in the negative. Powell v. State, 85 Md.App. 330, 583 A.2d 1114 (1991). We will do likewise.
