AN INDIVIDUAL WHO FAILS TO MAKE A REPORT UNDER SUBSECTION (B)(1) OF
THIS SECTION IS GUILTY OF A MISDEMEANOR AND ON CONVICTION IS SUBJECT TO A
FINE NOT EXCEEDING $25.
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, § 336(b), (d), and, as it related to
the reporting of certain injuries caused by a moving vessel, (a)(1).
Former Art. 27, § 336(c)(2) is deleted as unnecessary in light of the
reorganization of material derived from former § 336. Subsection (c)(2)
provided that the moving vessel injury reporting requirements applied
statewide, unlike the other injury reporting that was required only in
certain counties.
Defined terms: "County" § 1-101
