Since the publication in 1998 of Replacement Titles 39 (44-83), 40. many laws have been amended or repealed and many new laws have been enacted. The resulting increase in the size of the cumulative supplement for Titles 39 (44-83), 40 has made it necessary to revise this volume. Accordingly, Replacement Titles 39 (44-83), 40 is issued with the approval and under the direction of the Idaho Code Commission. To better serve our customers, by making our annotations more current, LexisNexis has changed the sources that are read to create annotations for this publication. Rather than waiting for cases to appear in printed reporters, court decisions are now being read as they are released by the courts. A consequence of this more current reading of cases, as they are posted on lexis.com, is that the most recent cases annotated may not yet have print reporter citations. These will be provided, as they become available, through later publications. This publication contains contains annotations taken from decisions of the enacted by the Idaho Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals, and the appropriate federal courts, posted on lexis.com as of March 19, 2002. These cases will be printed in the following reports: Pacific Reporter, 3rd Series Federal Supplement, 2nd Series Federal Reporter, 3rd Series United States Supreme Court Reports, Lawyers' Edition, 2nd Series Additionally, annotations have been taken from the following sources: American t aw Reports, 5th Series, through Volume 93 American Law Reports, Federal Series, through Volume 173 Opinions of Attorney General, 2001-3 Following is an explanation of the abbreviations of the Court Rules used throughout the Idaho Code.
