Bill > SB42

This bill amends the Official Code of Georgia Annotated by repealing subsection (b) of Code Section 16-6-13, which relates to penalties for offenses involving prostitution, keeping a place of prostitution, pimping, and pandering. By reserving the entirety of this subsection, the bill effectively removes existing penalty provisions for these specific criminal offenses. The legislation will become effective either upon the Governor's approval or when it automatically becomes law without explicit approval. The bill includes a standard provision that repeals any conflicting laws, ensuring that the new legal standard takes precedence. While the bill does not specify the exact nature of the penalty changes, it suggests a potential reduction or elimination of previously established criminal penalties related to prostitution-related offenses in Georgia.
