The Uniform Commercial Code, being a general enactment of chapters under Title 36, intended as a unified coverage of its subject matter, no part of it shall be considered to be impliedly repealed by subsequent legislation if such construction can reasonably be avoided. HISTORY: 1962 Code Section 10.1-104; 1966 (54) 2716; 2014 Act No. 213 (S.343), Section 1, eff October 1, 2014. OFFICIAL COMMENT Source: Former Section 1-104. Changes from former law: Except for changing the form of reference to the Uniform Commercial Code, this section is identical to former Section 1-104. 1. This section embodies the policy that an act that bears evidence of carefully considered permanent regulative intention should not lightly be regarded as impliedly repealed by subsequent legislation. The Uniform Commercial Code, carefully integrated and intended as a uniform codification of permanent character covering an entire 'field' of law, is to be regarded as particularly resistant to implied repeal.
