SUBTITLE 2. CREDIT CARD CRIMES.
PART I - GENERAL PROVISIONS.
8-201. DEFINITIONS.
(A) IN GENERAL.
IN THIS SUBTITLE THE FOLLOWING WORDS HAVE THE MEANINGS INDICATED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is standard language substituted for the
introductory language of former Art. 27, § 145(a).
The reference to "this subtitle" is substituted for the former reference to
this "section", although this subtitle is derived, in part, from material
outside former Art. 27, § 145. The only uses of the terms defined in this
section in material that is not derived from former § 145 are either easily
distinguishable from the defined term, as in the use of "telephone credit
card" in § 8-210 derived from former Art. 27, § 557A, or are consistent with
the definitions in this section, as in "credit card" and "issuer" in Part II of
this subtitle, derived from former CL §§ 14-1401 through 14-1405. No
substantive change is intended.
(B) CARDHOLDER
"CARDHOLDER" MEANS THE PERSON NAMED ON THE FACE OF A CREDIT CARD
TO WHOM OR FOR WHOSE BENEFIT THE CREDIT CARD IS ISSUED BY AN ISSUER
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 27, § 145(a)(1).
The former reference to an "organization" is deleted in light of the defined
term "person".
Defined term: "Person" § 1-101
(C) CREDIT CARD.
(1) "CREDIT CARD" MEANS AN INSTRUMENT OR DEVICE ISSUED BY AN
ISSUER FOR THE USE OF A CARDHOLDER IN OBTAINING MONEY, GOODS, SERVICES,
OR ANYTHING OF VALUE ON CREDIT.
(2) "CREDIT CARD" INCLUDES:
(I) A DEBIT CARD, ACCESS CARD, OR OTHER DEVICE FOR USE BY A
CARDHOLDER TO EFFECT A TRANSFER OF FUNDS THROUGH AN ELECTRONIC
