Editor’s notes.
This Code section was based on Code 1981, § 15-10-2.1 , enacted by Ga. L. 1983, p. 884, § 2-1. The Code section continued, until July 1, 1985, the jurisdiction of those magistrate courts which as of June 30, 1983, had jurisdiction over misdemeanor cases and over enforcement of municipal ordinances. Subsection (b) of the Code section provided for its repeal effective July 1, 1985, but provided that any case in which a court assumed jurisdiction under the Code section prior to July 1, 1985, may be retained for disposition by that court after that date.
Ga. L. 1985, p. 352, § 1, repealed former Code Section 15-10-2.1 , pertaining to continuation of certain existing magistrate courts. The former Code section was based on Code 1981, § 15-10-2.1 , enacted by Ga. L. 1983, p. 884, § 2-1.
Ga. L. 2006, p. 275, § 5-1/HB 1320, not codified by the General Assembly, provides that the Act shall become effective April 21, 2006, for purposes of adopting local ordinances to become effective on or after July 1, 2006.
