84-1-104. Construction against implied repeal. The uniform commercial code being a general act intended as a unified coverage of its subject matter, no part of it shall be deemed to be impliedly repealed by subsequent legislation if such construction can reasonably be avoided.
History: L. 2007, ch. 89, § 4; July 1, 2008.
KANSAS COMMENT, 1996
This section states the generally accepted rule of construction that repeal by implication is not favored. The Kansas courts have long recognized this principle. See City of Kansas City v. Kimball, 60 K. 224, 56 P. 78 (1899); Naff v. Harper, 144 K. 424, 61 P. 2d 129 (1936).
Revisor's Note:
Former section 84-1-104 was repealed by L. 2007, ch. 89, § 49 and the number reassigned to the current text.
