WOODWARD, J.
The instant appeal calls upon this Court to decide, for the first time, whether a Maryland trial court can grant a stay of a judicial proceeding, under the automatic stay provision of 11 U.S.C. § 362, as to a non-bankrupt co-defendant of a debtor without a prior order granting such a stay from the bankruptcy court administering the debtor's estate. We hold that the trial court cannot.
