COMMITTEE NOTE: This subsection is derived from former FL § 5-301(b) and
revised to apply to all of FL Title 5. Accordingly, former FL §§ 5-4B-01(c)
and 5-501(c), which cross referenced the former FL § 5-301(b) definition,
are deleted.
This definition also will apply to current FL § 5-408, in which the term
"child placement agency" is used without definition.
In item (1) of this subsection, the former phrase "of social services" is
deleted in light of the newly defined term "local department", which also
encompasses the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human
Services.
In item (2) of this subsection, the reference to "a comparable governmental
unit of another state" is added for completeness.
Defined terms: "Department" § 5-101
"Local department" § 1-101

THAT, IF COMMITTED IN THIS STATE, WOULD BE A CRIME OF VIOLENCE AS DEFINED

COMMITTEE NOTE: This subsection is new and added to allow concise
reference to crimes of violence without repetition of the cross-reference to
the Criminal Law Article definition.
Defined term: "State" § 1-101
(E) DEPARTMENT.
