History

This law was first created in 1962. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 639 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 1962 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 9 times. Those modifications are cataloged by “The Acts of Assembly,” a state publication, by year and chapter. Those modifications that can be read on the General Assembly’s website will be linked accordingly. Those modifications are as follows: in 1974, chapter 534; in 1979, chapter 327; in 1981, chapter 447; in 1988, chapters 42 and 765; in 2000, chapter 726; in 2002, chapter 869; in 2004, chapter 945; in 2005, chapter 829; in 2010, chapter 91.
