repealing clause

Read a random definition: faculties

A quick definition of repealing clause:

A repealing clause is a part of a law that cancels or gets rid of an older law.

A more thorough explanation:

A repealing clause is a part of a law that cancels or revokes a previous law. It is a statutory provision that repeals an earlier statute.

For example, if there is a law that says it is illegal to sell alcohol on Sundays, but a new law is passed that allows alcohol sales on Sundays, the new law will have a repealing clause that cancels the old law.

Another example is the Affordable Care Act, which included a repealing clause that cancelled certain provisions of previous healthcare laws.

These examples illustrate how a repealing clause is used to remove or replace outdated or ineffective laws with new ones.

I know UTK is open at some point as I am suppose to have my decision by the 31st, just hoping sooner then later but not seeing anyone anywhere saying they are getting a call from them so I am guessing it isn't today.

They emailed me back when I hit them up saying I will have a decision with in two weeks which means the 31st is the last day. Was really hoping for today as I think before Christmas would mean an A because sending an R a couple days before Christmas is butt
