2006Appellants Mackey and Severino argue before this Court that Maryland law does not recognize the conspiracy theory of jurisdiction because it is inconsistent with the plain language of the Maryland “long-arm” statute, Md.Code (1974, 2002 Repl.Vol., 2005 Cum.Supp.), § 6-103(b) of the Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article. 1 They argue further that the conspiracy theory violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution by not satisfying the minimum contacts test required by Int’l Shoe Co. v. Washington, 326 U.S. 310 , 66 S.Ct. 154 , 90 L.Ed. 95 (1945)
