Article 96 1/2

Sections 49 through 51, inclusive

Annotated Code of Maryland

(1964 Replacement Volume and 1977 Supplement)

be and they are hereby repealed.

SECTION 2. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That a new
Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, designated
"Education", be and it is hereby enacted to read as follows:

ARTICLE - EDUCATION

DIVISION I - DEFINITIONS; GENERAL PROVISIONS

TITLE 1. DEFINITIONS; GENERAL PROVISIONS.

SUBTITLE 1- DEFINITIONS.

1-101. IN GENERAL DEFINITIONS.

(A) IN GENERAL.

IN THIS ARTICLE, UNLESS THE CONTEXT CLEARLY REQUIRES
OTHERWISE, THE FOLLOWING WORDS HAVE THE MEANINGS INDICATED.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as Art.
77, §lA(a).

The only changes are in style.

1-102. (B) ANY STATE.

"ANY STATE" MEANS:

(1)          ANY STATE, POSSESSION, OR TERRITORY OF THE UNITED
STATES;

(2)       THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA; AND

(3)       THE COMMONWEALTH OF PUERTO RICO.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language added to
avoid repetitive use in this article of common
phrases such as "state, possession, territory, or
the District of Columbia". The reference to
Puerto Rico is added because it is not a
territory or possession of the United States, but
is a commonwealth voluntarily associated with the
United States. The word "any" is used to
distinguish the defined term from references to
"this State" or "the State", meaning the State of
Maryland.
