Balt., Md., Code art. 18, § 1-10 (2026)

The Mayor is authorized, upon the presentation to him of satisfactory evidence of the existence of any just and valid claim on the part of the corporation, on account of the school fund, against a certain estate, and which claim it is, in his judgment, judicious to prosecute, to employ for that purpose the services of one or more agents, and to agree with such agent or agents for such compensation to him or them as he may deem fair and reasonable, provided the said compensation shall be entirely contingent upon the recovery of the money.
