GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF NORTH CAROLINA
1985 SESSION

CHAPTER 690 
HOUSE BILL 796 

AN ACT CLARIFYING THE PROCEDURE FOR SERVING PICK-UP NOTICES UNDER THE TEN DAY REVOCATION PROCEDURE. 

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

Section 1.  G.S. 20-16.5(e) is amended by deleting the last sentence and inserting in its place:  "The pick-up order must be issued to a member of a local law enforcement agency if the charging officer was employed by the agency at the time of the charge and the person resides in or is present in the agency's territorial jurisdiction.  In all other cases, the pick- up order must be issued to an officer or inspector of the Division.  A pick-up order issued pursuant to this section is to be served in accordance with G.S. 20-29 as if the order had been issued by the Division." 
Sec. 2.  G.S. 20-16.5(f) is amended by rewriting the sixth sentence to read:  "The pick-up order must be issued and served in the same manner as specified in subsection (e) for pick-up orders issued pursuant to that subsection." 
Sec. 3.  This act shall become effective August 1, 1985, and applies to pick-up orders issued on and after that date. 
In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 11th day of July, 1985.
