Housing Authority of Baltimore City v. Bennett6/6/2000 believed would make the monetary caps applicable to virtually all actions against local governments "or" actions against local government employees. There is no legislative history suggesting that the new language adopted by the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, which became § 5-303, was intended to make the monetary caps applicable to suits directly against local governments. Moreover, it seems clear that both houses viewed the difference in wording as a matter of substance, as neither house was willing to acquiesce in the other house's version, thereby requiring a conference committee to resolve the differences.
Both the Court of Special Appeals and the Circuit Court for Baltimore City correctly held that the LGTCA's caps on damages were inapplicable to a tort judgment against the Authority.
JUDGMENT OF THE COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS AFFIRMED. COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE PETITIONER.
