REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 88B, § 12A(c), (d), (e), (f), (i), and (j).

Throughout this section, the references to an "individual" are substituted
for the former references to a "person" because only an individual, and not
the other entities included in the defined term "person", can be convicted of
a crime of violence, as defined in this subtitle.

In the introductory language of subsection (a)(1) and the introductory
language of subsection (b) of this section, the former phrases "adopted by
the Secretary" and "after consultation with the Director", which modified
"regulations", are deleted as unnecessary in light of § 2-503 of this
subtitle, which describes the process for adopting regulations under this
subtitle.

In subsection (a)(l)(i) of this section, the phrase "if the individual is
sentenced to a term of imprisonment" is added for clarity.

Also in subsection (a)(l)(i) of this section, the reference to a "correctional
facility" is substituted for the former reference to a "prison or detention
facility" for consistency with terminology used in the Correctional Services
Article. See the General Revisor's Note to that article. Similarly, in
subsection (b)(1) of this section, the reference to a "correctional facility" is
substituted for the former reference to a "place of incarceration".

In subsections (a)(2) and (b)(1) of this section, the phrase "confined in a
correctional facility" is substituted for the former word "incarcerated" for
consistency with terminology used in the Correctional Services Article. See
General Revisor's Note to that article.
