Doesn't this action violate the adopted regulations in COMAR?
29.03.02.03 "Upon receipt of the application and the supporting material described, the Secretary shall cause an investigation of the applicant to be conducted for the purpose of determining whether the applicant possesses the qualifications for a permit as required by Public Safety Article, §5-306, Annotated Code of Maryland." http://www.dsd.state.md.us/comar/getfile.aspx?file=29.03.02.03.htm
AND
29.03.02.06 "Upon the completion of the investigation, the Secretary of State Police shall notify the applicant by letter either that the permit has been issued or that it has been denied . http://www.dsd.state.md.us/comar/getfile.aspx?file=29.03.02.06.htm
Emphasis Mine. Doesn't seem that leaves room to return an application before processing it.
