History

This law was first created in 1993. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapters 441 and 605 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1993 “Acts” aren’t available online.
