History
Ga. L. 1945, p. 137, § 6; Ga. L. 2022, p. 13, § 1/HB 1361. The 2022 amendment, effective March 4, 2022, substituted the present provisions of subsection (c) for the former provisions, which read: “If a statute of the state, any order or regulation of any administrative body of the state, or any franchise granted by the state is alleged to be unconstitutional, the Attorney General of the state shall be served with a copy of the proceeding and shall be entitled to be heard.”.
Editor's notes
Ga. L. 2022, p. 13, § 2/HB 1361, not codified by the General Assembly, provides, in part, that the amendment to subsection (c) shall apply to all proceedings filed on and after the effective date. This Act became effective March 4, 2022.
