 26    state  of  Idaho,  through  its governor and state treasurer, is authorized to
 27    have printed extra blank state bonds of any issue now outstanding or hereafter
 28    issued; said bonds to be kept in such secure place as  may  be  designated  by
 29    such  officials.  The  state  treasurer  is  hereby  authorized to receive for
 30    cancelation cancellation and cancel any bonds which may have been or are here-
 31    after issued, and upon cancelation cancellation thereof to issue to the  owner
 32    or  holder  of such bonds submitted for cancelation cancellation, new bonds of
 33    the same issue of such higher or lower denominations as may be requested,  but
 34    the  equivalent  in money and in the exact form and contents, except as to the
 35    amount of each individual bond, as the bonds canceled.
 36        Upon the cancelation cancellation of said bonds they shall each  be  muti-
 37    lated  by perforating the face thereof with the word "canceled," and each cou-
 38    pon attached thereto shall be mutilated by punching a hole  therein,  and  the

 42    bond in registers kept in their respective offices for such purpose and  shall
 43    show  the  cancelation cancellation of the old bonds in the proper bond regis-

 45    "registered."  The  state officers in office at the time of the issuing of the
 46    new bonds, holding the same offices as those signing the old bonds are  hereby
 47    authorized  to  sign  their names, attest and execute the new bond or bonds so
 48    issued, but such bonds shall bear the date of the  original  bonds.  Upon  the
 49    face  of  each  new bond as issued must appear the words: "This bond is issued
 50    this .... day of ...., 19...., in lieu of bond No. .... of this issue, in com-
 51    pliance with the provisions of chapter No. 86, 1923 Session Laws of the  State
 52    of  Idaho," inserting the date of the issue of the new bond. All expenses con-
 53    nected with such exchange of any bonds shall be paid in advance by the  appli-

                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                             RS 11408



The purpose of this proposed legislation is literally housekeeping in 
nature.  There are 25 places in the Idaho Code where various legal 
forms are outlined and the statutory date to be affixed to them is 
19___.   With the coming of 2000 this reference is obsolete and there 
have been a couple of cases in the past year where having or not 
having 19___ on certain legal documents that were being filed in 2000 
or 2001 could have placed a legal cloud on legitimate proceedings.  
This legislation would remove that cloud and clean up the Idaho Code 
database to reflect the new century.
