HARRELL and BATTAGLIA, JJ.
dissent.
Dissenting Opinion by HARRELL, J., in which BATTAGLIA, J., joins
Consonant with my association with the dissent in Pringle v. State, 370 Md. 525, 556-66, 805 A.2d 1016, 1033-40 (2002), I respectfully dissent in the present case. Although Pringle presaged the result in this case, I cling to a view that both it and this case are decided wrongly. In this case, I would adopt the reasoning of United States v. Klinginsmith, 25 F.3d 1507 (10th Circ.1994), cert. denied, 513 U.S. 1059, 115 S.Ct. 669, 130 L.Ed.2d 602 (1994) and United States v. Garcia, 52 F.Supp.2d 1239 (D.Kan.1999) and reverse the Court of Special Appeals.
Judge BATTAGLIA authorizes me to state that she joins this dissent.
