14-305. PENALTY.

ANY PERSON WHO WILLFULLY VIOLATES ANY PROVISION OF
THIS SUBTITLE IS GUILTY OF A MISDEMEANOR AND, IN ADDITION

the first sentence of Art. 83, §31.

The reference to "injunctive relief" is
substituted for "actions enumerated" for
purposes of clarity.

The only other changes are in style.

The Commission notes that the penalties
imposed by this section on persons "who
willfully violate" this subtitle are identical
to the penalties imposed by §13—411 on persons
"who violate" the provisions relating
generally to unfair or deceptive trade
practices. Since violation of this subtitle
also constitutes an "unfair or deceptive trade
practice" — see, §§ 13—301(10) and 14-302 —
the General Assembly may wish to conform the
two standards of violation.

14-306. SHORT TITLE.

THIS SUBTITLE MAY BE CITED AS THE MARYLAND
DOOR-TO-DOOR SALES ACT.
