WHEREAS, the petition for writ of certiorari in the above-entitled case having been granted and argued, and

WHEREAS, following argument, the Court having issued an Order on November 10, 2020, remanding the case to the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland, without affirming or reversing, for a clarification of the basis of that Court’s April 14, 2020 decision in denying Respondent’s motion for reconsideration in Case No. CSA-REG-0109-2018, and

WHEREAS, on November 18, 2020, the Court of Special Appeals issued an Opinion clarifying the basis for its decision declining to exercise its discretion to remand this case for resentencing and, as a result, denying the State of Maryland’s motion to reconsider, and
