What this means

  • The index files it under the chapter heading “Chapter TWENTY: TWO”.
  • The passage runs to about 51 words.

The index holds no article number for this record. Cite the passage itself rather than a section number.

No rights vocabulary from our fixed word list appears in this passage, so no plain-language reading is offered for it.

This index row contains 8 separately numbered sections, so it is a chapter-length passage rather than one provision. Cite the passage, and treat any single section number as unverified.

This is a mechanical reading aid generated from the text above by matching words in it. It is not legal advice, not a lawyer’s interpretation, and not a substitute for the provision itself.
