Saul Ewing, LLP

Friedman Assists in Preparing Attorney General Candidate Arguments
Dan Friedman, Special Counsel in the Litigation Department in the Baltimore office and author of The Maryland Constitution: A Reference Guide, was quoted in this article after Maryland's highest court dismissed a lawsuit that could have removed Democratic attorney general candidate Douglas F. Gansler from the November 7 election ballot.

An Anne Arundel County circuit court judge ruled that Mr. Gansler's combined legal experience and 17 years as a member of the Maryland State Bar met the constitutional requirement that the candidate have practiced law in Maryland for 10 years, and dismissed the case.

Jason Shoemaker, who argued the case against Mr. Gansler, said the uncertainty about Mr. Gansler's qualifications could give Governor Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr. the right to challenge Mr. Gansler's election.

According to state constitution, the governor can "decide on the election and qualification" of the winner of the attorney general election.

Mr. Friedman, who helped Mr. Gansler's attorneys prepare for the high court, said the exact meaning of the language "is an open question of Maryland law, but I believe that the governor's job is just to swear in the winner of the election.
