See provisions of § 5 of S.B. 123 (149 v  - ) following RC § 2929.01. 

Not analogous to former RC § 2929.17, amended and renumbered RC § 2929.24 in 146 v S 2, eff 7-1-96.

The provisions of § 3 of HB 349 (148 v  - ) read as follows: 

SECTION 3. Sections 2929.01 and 2929.17 of the Revised Code are presented in this act as composites of the sections as amended by both Am. S.B. 9 and Am. Sub. S.B. 107 of the 123rd General Assembly, with the new language of neither of the acts shown in capital letters. Section 2951.02 of the Revised Code is presented in this act as a composite of the section as amended by H.B. 471, Am. S.B. 9, and Am. Sub. S.B. 107 of the 123rd General Assembly, with the new language of none of the acts shown in capital letters. This is in recognition of the principle stated in division (B) of section 1.52 of the Revised Code that such amendments are to be harmonized where not substantively irreconcilable and constitutes a legislative finding that such is the resulting version in effect prior to the effective date of this act.
