In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the reference to authorizing a person to
"change or cancel the registration by reregistration" is substituted for the
former reference to authorizing an organization to "by reregistration alter
or cancel the same" for clarity and consistency.
In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to "a name or insignia"
closely resembling another registered name or insignia is added for clarity.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the reference to the "Secretary of
State" is added to clarify who registers a name or insignia.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the reference to a name or insignia
"of" an organization is substituted for the former reference to an
organization "having" a name or insignia for clarity.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to permitting the
"alteration" of a registration is deleted as implicit in the reference to
"register[ing]".
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to other insignia
"whatsoever" is deleted as surplusage.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to a name or
insignia "already" registered is deleted as unnecessary.
Defined term: "Organization" § 19-201
19-203. APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION.
THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE ORGANIZATION SHALL APPLY FOR
REGISTRATION UNDER THIS SUBTITLE ON THE FORM THAT THE SECRETARY OF
STATE PROVIDES.
REVISOR'S NOTE: Chapter 26, Acts of 2002, which enacted the Criminal Law
Article, also added this section, which is new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 27, § 185, as it related to application
for registration.
The reference to application for registration "under this subtitle" is added
for clarity.
The reference to application by the chief "executive" officer is added for
clarity and consistency within the Code. See, e.g., §§ 9-231 and 14-419 of
the Insurance Article.
The reference to "a form", that the Secretary of State provides is
substituted for the former archaic reference to "blanks" for clarity and
consistency.
The former reference to application by the chief executive officer "or
officers" is deleted in light of Art. 1, § 8, which provides that the singular
generally includes the plural.
