Section 13-1301 - Definitions. - Maryland Statutes

§ 13-1301. Definitions.
 

(a)  In general.- In this subtitle the following words have the meanings indicated. 
   
Revisor's Note.

This subsection is new language derived without substantive change from the introductory language of former Art. 27, § 258A(a). 
 

In this subsection, 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, § 258A. Because the term "gaming event" defined in this section is used only in provisions that are derived from former Art. 27, §§ 255 and 258A, and in light of § 13-1303 of this subtitle, no substantive change results. 

(b)  County commissioners.- "County commissioners" means the Board of County Commissioners of Frederick County. 
   
Revisor's Note.

This subsection is new language derived without substantive change from former Art. 27, § 258A(a)(1). 
 

The defined term "county commissioners" is substituted for the former defined term "Board" for consistency within this title. 

(c)  Gaming event.- "Gaming event" includes a: 

(1) bazaar; 

(2) carnival; 

(3) raffle; 

(4) tip jar; and 

(5) punchboard. 
   
Revisor's Note.

This subsection is new language derived without substantive change from former Art. 27, § 258A(a)(4). 
 

The former reference to "other similar games of chance" is deleted in light of the use of the word "includes". See Art. 1, § 30.
