1-3-108. Code as continuation of existing law.

For the purposes of construction, the provisions of this code insofar as they are substantially the same as existing law relating to the same subject matter shall be construed as continuations of and substitutes for the previously existing law repealed by § 1-2-104. It is not the purpose of this code to change the effect of any such existing law.
