the intent of the section preserved by the
deletion of the bail schedule reference.
In the introductory clause of subsection (b),
the present reference to a person being taken
before a "court" is deleted as inapplicable to
the Maryland Court System. The phrase was
adopted inadvertently from the corresponding
Uniform Vehicle Code provision.
In subsection (b) (2) of this section, the
reference to a "judge" is added to the list of
persons authorized to accept bail; a judge
clearly has the common law power to perform
this function.
The only other changes are in style.
26-40 3. BAIL.
A DISTRICT COURT COMMISSIONER MAY NOT SET BAIL IN
AN AMOUNT GREATER THAN THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED AS A FINE FOR
THE ALLEGED OFFENSE.
REVISOR'S NOTE; This section presently appears as
Art. 66 1/2, §16-107.1.
The more general and technically correct term
"bail" is substituted for "bond or cash
money".
The only other changes are in style.
