* ''Fleming Foods of Texas, Inc. v. Rylander'', 6 S.W.3d 278, [https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=4571895925091934784#p286 286] (Tex. 1999) ("We are compelled to conclude that when, as here, specific provisions of a 'nonsubstantive' codification and the code as a whole are direct, unambiguous, and cannot be reconciled with prior law, the codification rather than the prior, repealed statute must be given effect. . . . When there is no room to interpret or construe the current law as embodying the old, we must give full effect to the current law. General statements of the Legislature's intent cannot revive repealed statutes or override the clear meaning of a new, more specific statute.")

* ''American Indemnity Co. v. City of Austin'', 246 S.W. 1019, [https://texaslegalguide.com/images/Vol_246_SWR_1019.pdf#page=6 1024] (Tex. 1922) ("The construction here given section 43, art. 3, under which the Revised Statutes were adopted, is one consistent with the general rule, which is that such Codes are not mere compilations of laws previously existing, but bodies of laws so enacted that laws previously existing and omitted therefrom cease to exist, and such additions as appear therein are the law from the approval of the act adopting the Code. . . . The history of the subject of codification of statutes supports in a most striking and conclusive manner the general rule above announced.")
