GENE C. BRADFORD v. GEOFFREY L. FORMAN

PER CURIAM

Circuit Court for Baltimore City Case No. 24-O-18-001422

Kehoe, Beachley, Wright, Alexander, Jr. (Senior Judge, Specially Assigned), JJ.

OPINION [**]

PER CURIAM

Gene C. Bradford, appellant, appeals from an order issued by the Circuit Court for Baltimore City ratifying the foreclosure sale of real property located at 4114 W. Forest Park Avenue in Baltimore. On appeal, he contends that he should not have been named as a defendant in the foreclosure action because he was "not a cosignor [sic] of the loan but a guarantor." Mr. Bradford, however, did not raise this issue in the circuit court. In fact, he did not file any pleadings in the circuit court challenging the foreclosure sale. Consequently, the issue he now raises on appeal is not properly before us. See Maryland Rule 8-131(a) ("Ordinarily, the appellate court will not decide any . . . issue unless it plainly appears by the record to have been raised in or decided by the trial court[.]").

JUDGMENT OF THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR BALTIMORE CITY AFFIRMED. COSTS TO BE PAID BY APPELLANT.

[*] At the November 8, 2022 general election, the voters of Maryland ratified a constitutional amendment changing the name of the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland to the Appellate Court of Maryland. The name change took effect on December 14, 2022.

[**] This is an unreported opinion, and it may not be cited in any paper, brief, motion, or other document filed in this Court or any other Maryland Court as either precedent within the rule of stare decisis or as persuasive authority. Md. Rule 1-104.
