YAP STATE CODE
This version of the Yap State Code is
an unofficial version of the 1987 Code, as
previously supplemented twice, and being currently updated
by the Yap State Code Commission,
with assistance by the LIS Project. This draft unofficial version is
updated through Yap State Law (YSL) 5-23.
The first official version of the
code was done in 1987 (see, "Introduction (To Original 1987 Code)") and has been supplemented
twice. This latest version of the code that
is currently being updated through YSL 5-23 will be a new 2000 edition of the
Yap State Code when completed (see, "Introduction (To
2000 edition, Yap State Code)").
Users may utilize this unofficial version of the Yap State Code as a useful research tool, but should cite to the source laws set forth in the source following each Section of the Code, if citing to a provision that was amended or newly created after Yap State Law 3-88. YSL 3-88 was the last law codified by the Second Supplement to the official 1987 Yap State Code. Format editing was
done by the LIS Project to improve the readability of the
Code. Additional cross references and links have been added
to this version of the Yap State Code by the LIS Project to
assist in more efficient research.
Certain word processing characters such as dashes and quotation marks may not have translated cleanly into "html" format and may appear as underline marks and periods, respectively. Users of this on-line version of the Code are cautioned about such translation problems and should refer to the official version of the Code, as published by the Yap State Code Commission, for definitive citations. Users of this Code should also refer to the Disclaimer page of this web site for more information. INTRODUCTION (1987 YAP STATE CODE) INTRODUCTION (2000 YAP STATE CODE) Title 1.
