Current Statutory Codes the William S Finding Federal & State Statutes The William S. Richardson School of Law Library – University of Hawai`i at Mānoa Updated March 2007 How to locate a Federal Statute 1. Finding a Public Law After a law in enacted by Congress, it is assigned a public law number: For example: P.L. 105-62. This citation means: the 62nd public law passed by the 105th Congress. Public laws are published in United States Statutes at Large [KF50 .A15]. The public laws are listed in chronological order for each Congressional session. Each volume of has its own subject index and popular name index. 2. Finding a Federal Statute by Citation Public laws are eventually “codified,” by being placed, by subject, into the United States Code [KF62 .A2]. Laws listed in the United States Code are given a new citation. For example: 38 U.S.C. § 101 (2000) This means: Title 38 of the United States Code, Section 101, and enacted in the year 2000. 3. Finding a Federal Statute by Subject Consult the United States Code [KF62 .A2] The United States Code organizes the statutes by subject (called titles). Using the United States Code General Index, look for your subject topic. The index will give a citation, for example: 38 § 101. This means: Title 38, Section 101 of the Code. 4. Finding a Federal Statute by Name Many laws are given “Act” names, such as the Immigration and Naturalization Act. Consult Shepard's Acts and Cases by Popular Name (the “Acts” section) [KF90 .S52]. In the “Acts” section, popular names of laws are listed in alphabetical order with citations to the specific law. Usually, the given citation is to the United States Code [KF62 .A2]; however the citation will be for the Statutes at Large [KF50 .A15] if the public law is uncodified at the time of publication in Shepard's. How to locate a State Statute Each state has it’s own published Code, which are listed on the back of this guide. For example: HRS § 425-18(2)(A). This means: Hawaii Revised Statutes, Section (“Chapter”) 425, Number 18, Subsection 2A Locate the volume number that includes your citation chapter or section to find the statute. Each state code will also contain a subject index to find a statute by subject. If you need further assistance, please ask for a Librarian!

  • A Student Guide to Virginia's Legislative Process for Grades 6
    A Student Guide to Virginia’s Legislative Process for Grades 6 and 7 Setting the Stage The Constitution of Virginia was first approved in 1776. This document outlining Virginia’s fundamental law has been completely revised on five occasions. Minor changes, also known as amendments, have been approved many more times. Changes or revisions to the Constitution of Virginia may be proposed by the Virginia General Assembly or a constitutional convention established by the legislative branch. Any changes must be approved by voters in the Commonwealth. The most-recent major revision occurred in 1971. For Example, two changes were made to the Constitution of Virginia in 2000. The first change declared the right of people to hunt, fish and harvest game. The second change established the Lottery Proceeds Fund for all revenues from any state-run lottery. Those proceeds must then be spent locally for public education. Two major components of the Constitution of Virginia are the provisions for three separate and distinct branches of state government, along with the election process for all statewide elected officials, legislators, members of local governing bodies and constitutional officers in localities. State government is divided into three branches: executive, legislative and judicial. All branches are guided by the Constitution of Virginia. EXECUTIVE BRANCH LEGISLATIVE BRANCH JUDICIAL BRANCH This branch of the This branch of the This branch of the Commonwealth executes or Commonwealth is the Commonwealth interprets carries out policy passed by General Assembly.
