	Maryland Attorney General
		The Attorney General was asked whether the Maryland Racing Commission could delegate administration of special Maryland bred funds to bred associations.
		The Attorney General said it could delegate details of administration of the funds to those associations, but not policy decisions, at least without setting policy standards and reviewing the rules made by the associations.
		Nevertheless, it is also a general principle of administrative law that an administrative agency cannot, in the absence of express legislative authorization, delegate its statutory powers or functions such that it abdicates the exercise of discretion or judgment in favor of that of a private entity.

	Maryland Attorney General Opinion on "Balance Billing
		Maryland's original HMO statute did not address whether an HMO memeber could be liable to a provider for any portion of the cost of medical care provided.
		No one would suggest that the General Assembly, indefining the term "provider," as it did, intended to creat a system of managed care in which the health care delivery system ended at the Maryland border, depriving many Maryland HMO members of the opportunity to obtain needed care close to their homes.
		The rules relating to balance billing under Maryland law apply to an out-of-state provider unless that provider is not under contract with a Maryland licensed HMO and does not have the minimum contacts with Maryland that would permit application of Maryland law to the provider.

	Are the actions of the Attorney General of Maryland leading to unnecessary cancer deaths? -FAQ's- Cancer-Coverup.com
		First, as I have mentioned elsewhere, the Attorney General of Maryland has never taken action (which, with his broad discretionary injunctive power would be easy to do) to remove the products from the market.
		This well may be because, despite his self-appointed mantle as arbiter of consumer health, he has not found one witness out of the hundreds of thousands of medical experts in the United States to challenge the fact that cesium kills cancer cells.
		If he really is aware of the facts in the case, then he must know that the $12,000 plus fee he refers to was charged by a doctor in Virginia for a two to three week intravenous cesium and aloe vera treatment.
