Miss. Const. art. 7, § 197

Repealed. NOTE: Former Section 197 required that any foreign corporation or association wishing to be granted a license to build, operate or lease any railroad in the state, where such railroad would be partially in Mississippi and partially in another state or states, must first become incorporated under the laws of Mississippi. The former section also pertained to a domestic railroad company consolidating with a foreign company. The repeal of Section 197 was proposed by Laws 1989, ch. 588, House Concurrent Resolution No. 6, and upon ratification by the electorate on June 20, 1989, was deleted by proclamation of the Secretary of State on August 1, 1989.
