History
This law was first created in 1975. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 469 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 1975 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 10 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 1977, chapter 254; in 1982, chapter 420; in 1983, chapter 220; in 1984, chapter 376; in 1990, chapter 328; in 1994, chapter 929; in 1995, chapter 271; in 1996, chapter 949; in 2014, chapter 330; in 2019, chapter 712.
