No, requirements regarding disinterments and re-interments may be found in Section 10-403, Criminal Law Article, Annotated Code of Maryland. Authorization is required by the State’s Attorney of the county in which the cemetery is located, and a burial transit permit must be obtained from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
