§ 8.01-635 Common-law writ of quo warranto and information in the nature of writ of quo warranto abolished; statutory writ of quo warranto established

The common-law writ of quo warranto and information in the nature of writ of quo warranto is hereby abolished and superseded by the statutory writ of quo warranto.

History

This law was first created in 1977. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 617 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 1977 “Acts” aren’t available online.

1977, c. 617.
