Md. R. Rev. Ct. App. & Spec. App. 8-132
If the Supreme Court or the Appellate Court determines that an appellant has improperly noted an appeal to it but may be entitled to appeal to another court exercising appellate jurisdiction, the Court shall not dismiss the appeal but shall instead transfer the action to the court apparently having jurisdiction, upon the payment of costs provided in the order transferring the action.
If a notice of appeal, application for leave to appeal, or petition for certiorari is improperly filed in the Appellate Court, the Court shall not reject the filing but shall note on the filing the date when it was received and transfer the filing to the proper court. The receiving court shall docket the filing using the date that the filing was received by the Appellate Court.
