- Prior to the effective date of the Code, Ga. L. 1981, p. 1578, § 2, effective July 1, 1981, repealed the provisions originally assigned to this part (codified at §§ 16-12-101 through16-12-108) and enacted new provisions which were derived principally from Ga. L. 1969, p. 222, § 1 and codified at §§ 16-12-110 through16-12-113. This part was then repealed and reenacted by Ga. L. 1983, p. 1437, § 2, effective July 1, 1983, by which Act the former §§ 16-12-110 through16-12-113 were repealed and new §§ 16-12-101 through16-12-105 were enacted.
Because Ga. L. 1981, p. 1578, § 2 repealed Code sections designated §§ 16-12-101 through16-12-108 and enacted new Code sections designated as §§ 16-12-110 through16-12-113, the Code did not originally contain a Code section designated as § 16-12-109. In 2003, the Code Commission reserved § 16-12-109; however, Ga. L. 2007, p. 47, § 16, effective May 11, 2007, repealed the reservation of this Code section.
