Description

We granted the defendant's petition for a writ of certiorari in this criminal case primarily to resolve the question of whether a defendant, charged with one offense, may be convicted of a lesser included offense even though the lesser included offense was not mentioned in the charging document. This issue has been a recurring one in Maryland, but this Court has not yet had an occasion to decide it.1 See the discussion in Grimes v. State, 290 Md. 236, 240, 429 A.2d 228 (1981). Unfortunately, for reasons stated later, we shall be unable to decide the issue in the present case. However, we shall reverse the defendant's conviction and order a new trial on a second ground presented in the petition for a writ of certiorari, namely that the trial court improperly restricted defense counsel's closing argument to the jury.
