Current through Register Vol. 51, No. 24, December 2, 2024

Section 30.01.04.12 - Disclosure Against Public Interest

If, in the opinion of the official custodian, disclosure of a public record that may otherwise be subject to disclosure under the Public Information Act would do substantial injury to the public interest, the Executive Director may temporarily deny the request in writing and apply, within 10 working days of the denial, to the appropriate circuit court for an order permitting continued denial or restriction of access. Notice of the application filed with the circuit court shall be served on the applicant in the same manner that is provided for service of process by the Maryland Rules of Procedure.
