Section 31-10-1-1 - Purpose of recodification act

The purpose of the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of the general assembly is to recodify prior family law and juvenile law in a style that is clear, concise, and easy to interpret and apply. Except to the extent that:

(1) the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of the general assembly is amended to reflect the changes made in a provision of another bill that adds to, amends, or repeals a provision in the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of the general assembly; or

(2) the minutes of meetings of the code revision commission during 1996 expressly indicate a different purpose;

the substantive operation and effect of the prior family law and juvenile law continue uninterrupted as if the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of the general assembly had not been enacted.
