ANNAPOILIS, Md. — The Maryland Office of the Attorney General has filed an official notice that they are appealing a judge's decision last week declaring the 2021 Enacted Congressional map unconstitutional.

A new map has already been passed by both chambers of the state legislature and is headed to the Governor's desk, but contains a caveat that it will only remain in place if an appeal is unsuccessful.

That new map is also headed to court for a review of its constitutionality.

We will update this information as more details become available.
