xLaw identified in Estonian laws references to invalid provisions

In legal acts are many reference norms, where the legal norm manifests itself in the interaction of several provisions and where a specific provision refers to another provision either in the same or another law.

xLaw's new functionality "References from other laws" has identified a number of such referenced provisions that are no longer in force!

The law is constantly changing and in the process of changing the laws, it is also necessary to identify the interaction of the provisions to be amended or invalidated with other provisions. Otherwise, some legal provision may become empty and unenforceable.

Until now, there was no application that would automatically detect the aforementioned problem. The only option was to search manually, but such an approach could not give a complete result, because references are often given as lists, with the wording "§ of the same law.." etc.

xLaw's new function "References from other laws" allows you to see which legal acts refer to this provision (so-called back references) next to the referenced provision. With one click, it is possible to move to the referencing provision of the valid law and at the same time, it is also possible to read the referencing provision immediately (by moving the cursor on the reference).
