ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Lawmakers are looking for a stop-gap measure to fix problems with Maryland’s bail system, starting this spring. Sen. Joseph Getty, R-Carroll, said they’re hung up on disagreements about how dramatic these short-term changes should be.

A workgroup with senators, delegates and Gov. Martin O’Malley’s staff met Friday morning to negotiate. Getty said they’ll meet again Monday, as there are just over two weeks left in the session.
