History
This law was first created in 1973. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 194 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 1973 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 12 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 1980, chapter 37; in 1986, chapter 220; in 1987, chapters 151, 342, and 388; in 1989, chapter 727; in 1995, chapter 670; in 1996, chapter 920; in 1997, chapters 485, 783, and 904; in 1999, chapter 211; in 2002, chapters 44 and 98; in 2003, chapter 105; in 2004, chapter 746; in 2016, chapter 142.
