emphasize alternatives rather than choices.
In subsection (c)(2) of this section, reference to a "jury plan" is substituted
for the former exception, "except as provided in subsection (c) of this
section", to reflect recodification of former CJ § 8-209(c) now revised CJ §
8-216 with other provisions as to plans.
Also in subsection (c)(2), reference to a "trial" juror is substituted for the
former reference to a "juror ... on a petit jury", in accordance with the
council on jury use and management's preference for language more
understandable to the public.
Former Public Local Laws, Art. 1 [Allegany County], § 53-4, which set a
4-year limit for a "juror", and former Public Local Laws, Art. 12 [Garrett
County], § 58-6, which set a 2-year limit for "a grand or petit juror", are
deleted.
As to "county", see Art. 1, § 14 of the Code.
Defined terms: "Jury commissioner" § 8-101
