ROBERT L. EHRLICH, JR., Governor

Ch. 5

LEOBR definition of "law enforcement officer" does include the security
forces of the Department of General Services, the special police of the
Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, and a sheriff or deputy sheriff
of Baltimore City. Consequently, those officers are not included in the
definition of "law enforcement officer" and former Art. 41, §
4-1002(a)(2)(iv), (v), and (vi) are deleted as unnecessary.

In subsection (a)(4)(ii)2 of this section, the reference to a "municipal
corporation" is substituted for the former reference to an "incorporated
municipality" for consistency with Art. XI-E of the Maryland Constitution.

Also in subsection (a)(4)(ii)2 of this section, the former reference to
"Baltimore City" is deleted in light of the definition of county in § 1-101 of
this article.

In the introductory language of subsection (b)(1) of this section, the phrase
"[s]ubject to paragraph (2) of this subsection" is added for clarity.

In subsection (b)(1)(i) of this section, the former references to a "sheriff" or
"deputy sheriff" are deleted as included in the defined term "law
enforcement officer".

In subsection (d)(1) of this section, the reference to the "performance" of
duty is substituted for the former reference to "line" of duty for consistency
throughout this section.

Also in subsection (d)(1) of this section, the former reference to the
Secretary of State "of Maryland" is deleted as implicit.

Also in subsection (d)(1) of this section, the former reference to the
"Maryland" State flag is deleted as implicit.

In subsection (g) of this section, the reference to "money" is substituted for
the former reference to "funds" for consistency throughout this article.
