1993 LAWS OF MARYLAND

[(iii)] (II) Section 111 (relating to destroying, injuring, etc., property of
another);

[(iv)] (III) Sections 342 through 344 (theft) where the value of the
property stolen was less than $300;

[(v)] (IV) Section 33A (relating to breaking into a building or boat with
intent to steal);

[(vi)] (V) Sections 276 through 302 (relating to drugs and other

(i) (1) The State Fire Marshal or a full-time assistant of the office of the State
Fire Marshal has the same powers of arrest set forth in subsection (c) of this section as to
offenses listed under §§ 6, 7, 119, 139B, and 139C of this article.

(2) The State Fire Marshal or a full-time assistant of the office of the State
Fire Marshal has the same powers of arrest set forth in subsection (e) of this section as to
offenses listed under §§ [7A, 8,] 8(A), 9, 9A, 10, [10A, 11,] 11D, 111B, 139A, 151C, and
156 of this article, AND ATTEMPTING, CAUSING, AIDING, COUNSELING, OR
PROCURING ARSON IN THE FIRST OR SECOND DEGREE OR MALICIOUS BURNING IN
THE FIRST OR SECOND DEGREE.

COMMITTEE NOTE: The changes are intended solely to correct cross- references
changed due to the revision of the Arson and Burning subheading. The
addition of attempting, causing, aiding, counseling, and procuring an arson or
malicious burning is stylistic. Current law under the "Arson and Burning"
subheading specifically includes these as prohibited acts. The proposed
revision deletes them on the basis that common law adequately addresses
these crimes. Their deletion, however, requires that they be included here so
as not to alter the current authority of the Fire Marshal's office to arrest
persons for these offenses.

616 1/2.

(c) Any person charged with an offense hereinafter enumerated committed
during the time that person had been released on bail or his own recognizance for
committing an offense hereinafter enumerated, is ineligible to give bail or be released on
recognizance on the subsequent charge, until all prior charges hereunder have finally
been determined by the courts. But a person charged with a subsequent crime hereinafter
set forth, may rebut his ineligibility for release on bail before determination of the prior
charge. If, after consideration of the matters presented in rebuttal, the court hearing the
application for bail is persuaded that the applicant would not pose a danger to any other
person or to the community, and would appear at the time set for trial, the court may
allow release pending trial on suitable bail and on such other conditions as will reasonably
assure that the person charged will not flee. For the purposes of this subsection, court
does not mean District Court commissioners and the offenses are those specified in the
following sections of Article 27 of the Annotated Code of Maryland (1967 Repl. Vol.) as
they may be amended from time to time:                                                                            '
