sentence review under this subtitle.

689.

(d) The Maryland Correctional Institution
Hagerstown, which is a place of confinement and training for
male offenders from sixteen (16) to twenty-five (25) years
of age, both inclusive. In those cases in which the judge
of the [Supreme Bench of] CIRCUIT COURT FOR Baltimore City,
who is assigned to exercise jurisdiction in juvenile causes,
may waive jurisdiction and order a minor under the age of
sixteen, and the judge of any circuit court in any county
exercising jurisdiction in juvenile causes, may waive
jurisdiction and order a minor under the age of eighteen, to
be held for action under the regular procedure that would
follow if such act or acts had been committed by an adult,
then and in that event the judge presiding in the [criminal
courts of Baltimore City and the judge of the] circuit court
of any county upon assuming jurisdiction in such case and
upon conviction may commit the minor to the Maryland
Correctional Institution -- Hagerstown regardless of age.
The courts of this State, instead of imposing sentences of
fixed duration upon male offenders included within this
subsection may sentence them to the Maryland Correctional
Institution — Hagerstown for an indeterminate period of
time which may not exceed the maximum term of imprisonment
provided by statute for the offenses of which said person
was convicted; and in the event no penalty is prescribed by
statute for said offenses then the court shall prescribe the
maximum term of imprisonment; but nothing in this sentence
applies to any case in which the sentence is life
imprisonment or to the service of time for nonpayment of a
fine.

690.

(a) The provisions of this section are applicable to
any judge of the circuit court for any county[, the judges

such persons are described herein as "judge."

703.

The [Criminal Court of Baltimore City, and the] circuit
court of the county where a state correctional institution
or facility is located, at least once each calendar year,
shall charge the grand jury attending thereupon to inquire
into the conduct and management of each of the State
correctional institutions or correctional facilities within
the jurisdiction of the court and to make presentments of
all offenses and omissions of any person in or relating to
said State correctional institutions or facilities.
