- Certiorari procedure and payment
- The petition for writ of certiorari can be formal or informal. A formal petition must fully comply with the rules and requires certain documents to be attached. If you file an informal petition, you are not required to fully comply with the rules and attach particular documents. Read the law on the requirements. If you are representing yourself, it is best to file an informal petition. You can find the form for an informal petition on the Supreme Court's page . Make copies of your informal petition. Mail one copy to each party in the case. You will fill out a certificate of service stating that you have mailed out copies, when you mailed them, and to whom you mailed them. The certificate is included in the informal petition paperwork. If you do not include the certificate of service, the clerk will not accept your papers for filing and will return them to you. You will need to pay a filing fee. If you cannot afford the filing fee, you can file a request to waive the fee. Use form Request for Waiver of Pre-Paid Appellate Costs (CC-DC-092) . You can file the waiver request with your petition. Check the Supreme Court of Maryland fee schedule for current cost information. If your request to waive the fee is denied, you must pay the fee within 10 days of the denial. Otherwise, the court will dismiss your appeal. Second: The Supreme Court will decide whether or not to review your case. You need to order a transcript of the previous court hearings, if not already in the case file with the Supreme Court. If you asked the Supreme Court to hear a circuit court decision that was either appealed from the District Court or was on appeal from certain administrative decisions regarding drivers' licenses, you have 10 days from the date the Supreme Court agreed to review your case (issued Writ of Certiorari) to request the transcript. For most other cases, you have ten days from the filing of the notice of appeal. Some cases may have earlier deadlines so check with a lawyer or review Maryland Rule 8-411 . The Supreme Court hears and decides cases based on a time period called a term. A term runs from September 1 to August 30. A case will normally be decided in the same term that it has been briefed and argued. (as published)
