California CodesCivil Code - CIVPreliminary ProvisionsSection 20

No statute, law, or rule is continued in force because it is consistent with the provisions of this Code on the same subject; but in all cases provided for by this Code, all statutes, laws, and rules heretofore in force in this State, whether consistent or not with the provisions of this Code, unless expressly continued in force by it, are repealed or abrogated.

This repeal or abrogation does not revive any former law heretofore repealed, nor does it affect any right already existing or accrued, or any action or proceeding already taken, except as in this Code provided.

Notes

Repeals or abrogates all prior state statutes, laws, and rules in cases provided for by this code, whether or not they are consistent with it, unless the code expressly continues them; consistency alone keeps nothing in force. Preserves rights already existing or accrued and proceedings already taken, and revives no previously repealed law.
