Editor’s notes.
Ga. L. 1982, p. 996, § 6, which had been codified as subsection (c) of this Code section, stated that it amended this Code section but appears to have been intended as an amendment to Code Section 48-5-404. Ga. L. 1983, p. 414, § 1, effective July 1, 1983, repealed subsection (c) of this Code section as added by Ga. L. 1982, p. 996, § 6.
