MARVIN MANDEL, Governor 431
subsection (h). This change is proposed for
organizational purposes. The only other
changes are in style.
(E) "PATENT" MEANS ANY VALID GRANT BY THE STATE OF
ITS INTEREST IN AND TO ANY VACANT, RESURVEYED, ESCHEAT,
OR CONFISCATED LAND UNDER ANY PRIOR LAW, ANY GRANT
CONFIRMED BY ARTICLE 5 OF THE DECLARATION OF RIGHTS OF
THE STATE CONSTITUTION, OR ANY PATENT ISSUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THIS TITLE.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection presently appears as
Art. 21, §13-102(4) of the Code. The only
changes are in style.
(F) "RESURVEY" , WHETHER USED AS A NOON OR AS A
VERB IN ANY FORM OR TENSE, MEANS THE ACT OF SURVEYING ANY
LAND FOR WHICH A PATENT PREVIOUSLY WAS ISSUED IN ORDER TO
OBTAIN A NEW PATENT FOR IT.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection presently appears as
Art. 21, §13-102(5) of the Code. The only
changes are in style.
(G) "SURVEYOR" MEANS THE PERSON ELECTED OR
APPOINTED PURSUANT TO ARTICLE VII, §2, OF THE STATE
CONSTITUTION AS COUNTY SURVEYOR FOR THE COUNTY TO WHICH A
WARRANT OF SURVEY OF RESURVEY IS TO BE DIRECTED. HOWEVER,
IF THIS OFFICE IS NOT ELECTED OR APPOINTED IN THE COUNTY,
"SURVEYOR" MEANS ANY PERSON REELECTED IN THE STATE TO
PRACTICE LAND SURVEYING.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection presently appears as
Art. 21, §13-102(6) of the Code.
The cross reference to Art. 75 1/2 is proposed
for deletion in new subsection (g) and a new
reference is made instead to "any person
registered in the State to practice land
surveying" in order to facilitate future Code
revision.
The only other changes are in style.
(H) "VACANT LAND" MEANS LAND FOR WHICH NO PATENT
HAS BEEN ISSUED AND WHICH NO PERSON HAS POSSESSED FOR 20
YEARS PRIOR TO THE FILING OF A PROCEEDING UNDER THIS
TITLE, EXCEPT THE PERSON WHO APPLIES FOR A PATENT UNDER
THIS TITLE OR A PERSON THROUGH WHOM HE DELIVERS TITLE.
REVISOR'S NOTE; This subsection is new language
derived from Art. 21, §13-102(3) of the Code.
It is created by dividing that subsection and
adding new language to form the last clause.
