CHAPTER 17. EMERGENCY INTERIM LEGISLATIVE SUCCESSION
§ 1711 Convening of General Assembly in event of attack.

In the event of an attack, the Governor shall call the General Assembly into session as soon as practicable and, in any case, within 90 days following the inception of the attack. If the Governor fails to issue such call, the General Assembly shall, on the ninetieth day from the date of inception of the attack, automatically convene at the place where the Governor then has an office. Each member and each emergency interim successor, unless the person is certain that the member to whose powers and duties the person is designated to succeed or an emergency interim successor higher in order of succession will be available, shall proceed to the place of holding the General Assembly as expeditiously as practicable. At such session or at any sessions, in operation at the inception of the attack and at any subsequent sessions, limitations on the length of session and on the subjects which may be acted upon shall be suspended.
