DRAFTER'S NOTE:

Error: Erroneous cross-reference in Article 27, § 36E(i)(4).

Occurred: Ch. 3, 1994. Chapter 3 was the corrective bill for 1994. Chapter 3
changed the previous cross-reference in Article 27, § 36E(i)(4) from former §
90A of Article 56 of the Annotated Code of Maryland to the current
cross-reference. This change was an error, however, as former Article 56, §
90A was a grandfather clause, only applicable to persons licensed as private
detectives prior to March 27, 1972. See letter of Attorney General J. Joseph
Curran, Jr. to The Honorable William Donald Schaefer dated February 28,
1994.
