HISTORICAL NOTES

2012 Orders

The November 1, 2012, order added the last two sentences of the Committee note at the end of the Rule.

Committee note: The Rules in this Chapter are not intended to apply to proceedings for a writ of coram nobis as to judgments in civil actions. The failure to seek an appeal in a criminal case does not constitute a waiver of the right to file a petition for writ of error coram nobis. See Code, Criminal Procedure Article, § 8-401.
