11-211. DESTRUCTION OF OBSCENE MATTER UNDER COURT ORDER
WHEN THE CONVICTION OF A PERSON FOR A VIOLATION OF THIS SUBTITLE
BECOMES FINAL, THE COURT MAY ORDER THE DESTRUCTION OF ANY MATTER OR
ADVERTISEMENT THAT WAS THE BASIS OF THE PERSON'S CONVICTION AND THAT
REMAINS IN THE POSSESSION OR UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE COURT, THE STATE,
OR A LAW ENFORCEMENT UNIT.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 425.
The former phrase "[u]pon the conviction of the accused" is deleted in light
of the reference to a conviction "becom[ing] final".
The reference to "a violation of this subtitle" is added for clarity.
The reference to the "State" is substituted for the former reference to the
"State's Attorney" for clarity and consistency within this article.
The reference to a law enforcement "unit" is substituted for the former
reference to a law enforcement "agency" for consistency within this article.
See General Revisor's Note to article.
Defined terms: "Matter" § 11-201
"Person" § 1-101
GENERAL REVISOR'S NOTE TO SUBTITLE
The former Obscene Matter subtitle contained a general penalty provision,
former Art. 27, § 424, that applied to all violations of the subtitle that did not have a
separate penalty provision. As each crime without its own penalty provision is
separately punishable, the former penalty is repeated in each section to which the
penalty applies for clarity.
SUBTITLE 3. PROSTITUTION AND RELATED CRIMES,
11-301. DEFINITIONS.
(A) IN GENERAL.
IN THIS SUBTITLE THE FOLLOWING WORDS HAVE THE MEANINGS INDICATED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection formerly was Art. 27, § 426(a).
No changes are made.
(B) ASSIGNATION.
"ASSIGNATION" MEANS THE MAKING OF AN APPOINTMENT OR ENGAGEMENT
FOR PROSTITUTION OR ANY ACT IN FURTHERANCE OF THE APPOINTMENT OR
ENGAGEMENT.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection formerly was Art. 27, § 426(b).
