Reasons
Per Montgomery C.J.:
The Chief Justice, Seth D. Montgomery, issued the writ of certiorari after the petitioner applied for review of the Court of Appeals' decision. The Court followed procedural rules under Rule 12-502 of the appellate procedure, ensuring proper notice was given to the Court of Appeals and the respondent. The issuance of the writ effectively halts further proceedings in the Court of Appeals until the Supreme Court provides further direction.
