LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 21

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive 'change from the third through
sixth sentences of former Article 43B, §
12(a-l)(2). It is revised to reflect also the
substance of the first through the sixth
sentences and the eighth sentence of former
Article 43B, § 9(1)(2). Thus, in subsection
(a)(1) of this section, the phrase "unless later
changed by the court" reflects the introductory
clause of the fourth sentence of former Article
43B, § 9(1)(2).

The second sentence of subsection (a)(2) of this
section reflects the second clause of the fifth
sentence of former Article 43B, § 9(1)(2).

Subsection (a)(3)(i) of this section is new
language substituted for the former, limited
right "to produce witnesses on his behalf", for
conformity to similar provisions elsewhere in
this article.

In subsection (a)(3) of this section, the former
reference to the right to counsel is deleted as
unnecessary in light of § 9-605 of this subtitle.

In subsection (a)(4) of this section, the former
reference "if the court considers it advisable"
is deleted as unnecessary in light of the word
"may".

In subsection     (b) of this section, the term

"trier of fact"   is substituted for the references

to the "court",   to reflect that there may be a

jury trial.

As to subsection (b) of this section and the
deletion of the former provision on evidence, see
revisor's note to § 9-616 of this subtitle.

Defined terms: "Administration" § 9-101
"Drug addict" § 9-101
"Drug addiction" § 9-101

9-634. CERTIFICATION TO CRIMINAL COURT.

IF THE COURT DOES NOT COMMIT THE INDIVIDUAL UNDER PART
IV OF THIS SUBTITLE, THE COURT SHALL CERTIFY THAT
DETERMINATION AND RETURN THE DEFENDANT TO THE CRIMINAL COURT
THAT ORDERED THE PETITION FILED.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
43B, § 12(f).
