Definition of 'Day' for Reference Library

[tl_3237]

Since this issue continually arises especially with regards to 18 Pa. C.S.A. 6109(g), suggest you add the statutory definition of 'day' to the reference library:

1 Pa.C.S.A. § 1991

The following words and phrases, when used in any statute finally enacted on or after September 1, 1937, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, shall have the meanings given to them in this section:

"Day." The time from midnight to the next midnight.

This as riposte to erroneous assertions that the 45 day period is anything other than calendar days (eg business days, workdays, etc).

I think most of us here look at it that way, it's the Sheriff's in some counties that don't.

Nice to see it spelled out though.
