Defined term: "Public record" § 10-611

(E)  PERSON IN INTEREST.
"PERSON IN INTEREST" MEANS:

(1)  A PERSON OR GOVERNMENTAL UNIT THAT IS THE SUBJECT
OF A PUBLIC RECORD OR A DESIGNEE OF THE PERSON OR GOVERNMENTAL
UNIT; OR

(2)   IF THE PERSON HAS A LEGAL DISABILITY, THE PARENT
OR LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PERSON.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 76A, §
l(i).

In the introductory clause of this subsection,      the

former words "and includes" and "and include"   are

deleted as surplusage since it does not seem that     the
former definition was intended to be illustrative.

In item (1) of this subsection, the words
"governmental unit" are added to incorporate the
substance of former Art. 76A, § 1(h), which defined
"person" to include a "governmental agency". See
revisor's note to this section.

Also in item (1) of this subsection, the defined term
"public record" is substituted for the former word
"record", for clarity.

Defined terms: "Person" § 1-101
