History (1997-392, s. 1; 2009-483, ss. 5, 7; 2019-237, s. 6(a).) Editor's Note. - Session Laws 2009-483, s. 5, amended Session Laws 1997-392, s. 8, deleting the repeal date for Session Laws 1997-392, s. 1, which enacted Part 6 of Article 21A (G.S. 143-215.104A through 143-215.104U). Therefore, this section is not repealed effective January 1, 2012. Now see G.S. 143-215.104 A for sunset provision. Session Laws 2019-237, s. 9, provides: "If any provision of this act and G.S. 143C-5-4 are in conflict, the provisions of this act shall prevail."
