Later decisions citing this case, by decade. The current decade is in progress, and our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so the latest bars are undercounted — not a real decline.

¶1On Motion for Rehearing.

¶2Resolution 447 authorized the Commission to select a publisher and provided in pertinent part as follows: "The Commission is authorized to formulate with the publisher all the details associated with the project and to contract with the publisher, such contract being contingent upon the General Assembly appropriating the necessary funds therefor.” Ga. L. 1978, p. 230. The Resolution became effective February 13, 1978, and the contract was executed June 19, 1978.

¶3The prior indefinite appropriation of funds "for Code revision” effective January 23, 1978 (Ga. L. 1978, pp. 10, 12, 186) did not satisfy the subsequent contingency requirement of Resolution 447.

¶4Motion for rehearing denied.

All the Justices concur, except Jordan, J., who dissents. Undercofler, P. J., would deny the Motion for Rehearing but dissents from the addendum On Motion for Rehearing.
