(II) IF PAYMENT OF THE FINE IS DEFAULTED, IMPRISONMENT NOT
EXCEEDING 60 DAYS.
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, §§ 181, 182, 183, and 189.
In subsection (a) of this section, the reference to "impersonate" a person is
substituted for the former archaic reference to "personate" a person for
clarity.
As to the deletion of the references to a "badge[, distinctive ribbons, or
membership rosette or button]", in subsection (b) of this section, see
General Revisor's Note to subtitle.
In subsection (b) of this section and throughout this section, the references
to using and wearing an "insignia" are substituted for the former
references to using and wearing "the same" for clarity.
In subsections (b)(1), (c)(1), and (d)(1) of this section, the former references
to "regulations" of a society, etc., are deleted as implicit in the references to
the "rules" of a society, etc.
In subsection (b) of this section, the introductory phrase "[s]ubject to
paragraph (2) of this subsection" is added for clarity.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former references to "lodges" and
"societies" are deleted in light of Art. 1, § 8, which provides that the
singular generally includes the plural.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to a person
entitled to wear a symbolic representation "[under subsection (a) of] this
section" is deleted because subsection (a) of this section is a prohibition,
not an authorizing or entitling statute.
In subsections (c)(2) and (d)(2) of this section, the references to
imprisonment "if payment of the fine is defaulted" are substituted for the
former references to imprisonment if "in default of payment" for clarity.
Also in subsections (c)(2) and (d)(2) of this section, the references to "[a]
person who violates this subsection" are added for clarity and consistency.
As to the deletion of the reference in subsection (c) of this section to a
"uniform or button ... or the official decorations" of an organization, see
General Revisor's Note to subtitle.
In subsection (c) of this section, the former reference to the Disabled
American Veterans "of the World War" is deleted to reflect the current
name of that organization.
Also in subsection (c) of this section, the former reference to the "United
Spanish War Veterans" is deleted because the organization no longer
exists.
