CHARLES E. ORTH, Jr., Judge,
Specially Assigned.
I
Justice is the objective of Maryland’s judicial process. The process reaches for this objective by seeking the truth. It seeks the truth by means of a fair trial. In our administration of criminal justice, a fair trial is one which is in accord with the organic, statutory and common law to which an accused is subject, either by way of entitlement or obligation. 1 To assure that the laws are not offended, we have followed certain principles, which have become firmly established, and we have adopted, from time to time, appropriate rules.
