Gov. Martin O'Malley has appointed the lawyer who defends the General Assembly to a seat on the state's second highest court.
O'Malley on Tuesday appointed Dan Friedman, an assistant attorney general, to the at-large position on Maryland's Court of Special Appeals, a job vacant since Judge Albert J. Matricciani resigned earlier this year.
Friedman has been the chief architect behind the Maryland's defense of its new ban on the sale of assault weapons, upheld by a judge earlier this year, as well as several other high-profile cases. In that role, Friedman has also dispensed legal advice to state lawmakers and public officials.
In his role as assistant attorney general to the state legislature, Friedman has advised state lawmakers on legislation for the past eight years. Before that, he worked in O'Malley's mayoral administration as an assistant city solicitor, after a private sector career as a litigator.
