Question Presented (from Petition)

1- Md. Gen. Provision, 1-104, is not authority, nor based
on precedent within the rule of 'stare decisis', nor persuasive
authority. Maryland General Provision 1-l04, by their own rule
states 1-l04 is unconstitutional and does not follow precedent
nor this Court. Since Md. Gen. Prov.1-l04, is neither precedent
or within the rule of 'stare decisis', nor persuasive authority,
are the Order(s) by the Maryland Court of Appeals ,specifically,
in this case, UNCONSTITUTIONAL, or void, since they fail to follow
this Court, or is within the rule of '[s]tare [d]ecisis'?

to follow historical cases. when making a ruling on a similar
case. The Maryland Court of Appeals, have violated this rule
and doctrine in failing to follow law and precedent.

that public official immunity is not available with respect
to deliberate act(s) that form the basis for intentional torts,

. The lower court stated that Isiah
for intentional torts.Id.
