MARVIN MANDEL, Governor

303

10—104. Laws not repealed.

(1)    [Subtitle] TITLE 7 on documents of title does
not repeal or modify any laws prescribing the form or
contents of documents of title or the services or
facilities to be afforded by bailees, or otherwise
regulating bailees' businesses in respects not
specifically dealt with herein; bat the fact that such
laws are violated does not affect the status of a
document of title which otherwise complies with the
definition of a document of title (§ 1-201).

(2)    [This] TITLES 1 THROUGH 10 OF THIS article
[does] DO not repeal §§ 15-301 through 15-311 of the
Estates Article of the Code, which is cited as the
Maryland Uniform Act for the Simplification Of Fiduciary
Security Transfers, and if in any respect there is any
inconsistency between that act and [subtitle] TITLE 8 of
this article on investment securities the provisions of
the former act shall control.

GENERAL REVISOR'S NOTE

THE MARYLAND UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE

In preparing the Commercial Law Article, the
Commission to Revise the Annotated Code included present
Article 95B (Uniform Commercial Code) as Titles 1 through
10 of the Article. Although the style and organization
of the Uniform Commercial Code differ from general
revision guidelines, the Commission concluded that it
would retain the present language, which is generally
uniform with that of other jurisdictions and with that of
the Official Text of the Uniform Act; consequently,
except for the few corrective changes noted below, these
titles appear as originally enacted, without change.

Changes in nomenclature required by the
incorporation of present Article 95B into the Commercial
Law Article are as follows:

The phrase "Titles 1 through 10 of this Article" is
substituted for "this Article"; "Title" is substituted
for "Subtitle"; and "Subtitle" is substituted for "Part."
(In the official Text, these terns appear, respectively,
as "Act," "Article," and "Part.")

The "Short Titles" of the Uniform Commercial Code
are each amended to refer to the "Maryland" Uniform
Commercial Code; see, e.g., §§ 1—101 and 2—101. This is
done to indicate that a citation is to the Uniform Act as
enacted by the State of Maryland and not to the Official
Text or to the Act as adopted by other states. The
change conforms to revision guidelines, as previously
