Maryland Judiciary Case Search
The Maryland Judiciary Case Search is a web site which allows you to freely access information on all civil, traffic, and criminal cases in the state. This information includes defendant name, city and state, case number, date of birth, plaintiff name (civil cases only), trial date, charge, and case disposition. A search can turn up information on civil and criminal cases in all 24 of Maryland’s Counties in both the State’s district court and circuit court systems.
Maryland Appellate Court opinions are also online.
Update (8/5/2008): apparently the MD judiciary case search has become big internet news. The Washington Examiner has a story about how people who received traffic violations in Maryland may need to worry about identity theft because social security numbers are published in the case search records. “The traffic citation records show a person’s full name, address, sex, height, weight, birth date and driver’s license number, which is sometimes the same as his or her Social Security number — information that is hunted by identity thieves.”
Update (8/19/2008): LexusNexus, as part of Zimmerman’s Research Guide, has a page of resources and information about the Maryland Judiciary System.
Update (9/2/2010): TomComKnowsHow.com has a tutorial on How to Perform Maryland Judiciary Case Searches Online. The article suggests that, “as part of a pre-employment background check, you can perform an online Maryland Judiciary Case Search which will help you to weed out most of the dishonest applicants, before initializing further steps.”

Maryland Historical Trust
The Maryland Historical Trust is a state agency dedicated to preserving and interpreting the legacy of Maryland’s past. Through research, conservation and education, the Trust assists the people of Maryland in understanding their historical and cultural heritage. The Trust is an agency of the Maryland Department of Planning and serves as Maryland’s State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) pursuant to the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966.
The Trust was created in May of 1961 as a quasi-public corporation for the purpose of accepting and maintaining gifts of property and for assisting and encouraging preservation activities throughout the state. Funding was provided by the State and leadership was provided by a Board of Trustees which still exists today. Over the next few years, a survey and inventory program was initiated and financial assistance programs including state-funded grants and loans were developed.
Over time, the Trust’s mission has grown to include the review of state undertakings on historic properties, assistance to non-state historical and cultural museums, cultural conservation, underwater archeology, and heritage tourism activities. Programs of the Trust include the Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum (JPPM) located in Calvert County, Maryland. This 560-acre property was donated to the State of Maryland in trust to the Maryland Historical Trust on June 16, 1983 by Mrs. Jefferson Patterson to be a passive recreation, education, and research facility. Today, JPPM is home to the State Museum of Archeology and the award-winning Maryland Archeological Conservation Laboratory.
