## Opinion text

WATTS, J.,
dissenting.
I, respectfully, dissent. Appellant could easily have objected to the circuit court’s alleged failure to comply with Maryland Rule 4-246(b), but failed to do so. I agree with the views expressed by the dissent, as to the lack of preservation of the issue, in Valonis & Tyler v. State, 431 Md. 551, 556-58 , 66 A.3d 661 (2013) (McDonald, J., dissenting).
