Description
We granted certiorari here to decide whether the State child abuse law, Maryland Code (1957, 1976 Repl. Vol.) Art. 27, § 35A, is so vague and indefinite as to violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution. After appellant's constitutional attack on the statute failed in the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County (Evans, J.) and he was convicted by a jury of committing child abuse against his stepdaughter, he took an appeal to the Court of Special Appeals, which upheld the decision of the trial court in Bowers v. State, 38 Md. App. 21, 379 A.2d 748 (1977).*fn1 We now affirm.
