§ 31-10-1-8 — References to provisions of prior family law and juvenile law

(a) A reference in the recodification act of the
1997 regular session of the general assembly to a citation in the prior
family law and juvenile law before its repeal is added in certain
sections of the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of the
general assembly only as an aid to the reader.
(b) The inclusion or omission in the recodification act of the 1997
regular session of the general assembly of a reference to a citation in
the prior family law and juvenile law before its repeal does not affect:
(1) any rights or liabilities accrued;
(2) any penalties incurred;
(3) any violations committed;
(4) any proceedings begun;
(5) any bonds, notes, loans, or other forms of indebtedness issued,
incurred, or made;
(6) any tax levies made;
(7) any funds established;
(8) any patents issued;
(9) the validity, continuation, or termination of contracts or leases
executed;
(10) the validity, continuation, scope, termination, suspension, or
revocation of:
(A) permits;
(B) licenses;
(C) certificates of registration;
(D) grants of authority; or
(E) limitations of authority; or
(11) the validity of court decisions entered regarding the
constitutionality of any provision of the prior family law and
juvenile law;
before the effective date of the recodification act of the 1997 regular
session of the general assembly (July 1, 1997). Those rights, liabilities,
penalties, offenses, proceedings, bonds, notes, loans, other forms of
indebtedness, tax levies, funds, patents, contracts, leases, licenses,
permits, certificates of registration, and other grants of authority
continue and shall be imposed and enforced under prior family law and
juvenile law as if the recodification act of the 1997 regular session of
the general assembly had not been enacted.
(c) The inclusion or omission in the recodification act of the 1997
regular session of the general assembly of a citation to a provision in
the prior family law and juvenile law does not affect the use of a prior
conviction, violation, or noncompliance under the prior family law and
juvenile law as the basis for revocation of a license, permit, certificate
of registration, or other grant of authority under the recodification act
of the 1997 regular session of the general assembly, as necessary or
appropriate to apply the recodification act of the 1997 regular session
of the general assembly in a manner that does not result in a
substantive change in the law.
