GLOSSARY
Codifying Act definition
What does Codifying Act mean?
A codifying Act contains (at the time it is passed) all the law on the topic(s) to which it relates.
Since a codifying Act constitutes a fresh start in the area of law concerned, there is no presumption that judicial decisions on the previous law will be binding on courts dealing with cases under the new law.
Speed up all aspects of your legal work with tools that help you to work faster and smarter. Win cases, close deals and grow your business–all whilst saving time and reducing risk.
