The Maryland Court of Special Appeals primarily hears appeals from certain lower courts, including circuit courts and some administrative agencies. It reviews cases involving civil disputes, criminal matters, family law, and other legal issues where there are claims of errors in the application of law or procedure. However, it does not hear cases involving the death penalty or certain other specific matters that go directly to the Maryland Court of Appeals. The court aims to provide an appellate review to ensure fairness and legal correctness in the lower court's decisions.
