• State of Fla. ex rel. Dep't OF Gen. Servs. v. Willis, 344 So. 2d 580 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977)
  …former Section 120.-31(4), Florida Statutes (1973). The 1974 session law explicitly repealed that statute, and no construction in the judicial sense of the word is necessary or appropriate. Cf. Rojas v. State, 288 So. 2d 234 (Fla.1974), cert. den., 419 U.S. 851, 95 S.Ct. 93, 42 L.Ed.2d 82 (1974); Armstrong v. City of Tampa, 106 So. 2d 407 (Fla.1958). Neither may it be supposed that, by enacting Chapter 75-191, the legislature preserved from repeal the baffling array of disparate statutes which, before the…

  …Florida. Nowhere in the final decree did the Chancellor undertake to construe, explain or define the language of the state or federal constitution. The Court reaffirmed this position in Rojas v.
