Savings clause preserves existing rights and liabilities despite repeal and prevents revival of expired legal matters. A savings clause preserves the validity and consequences of acts, rights, obligations, liabilities, remedies, proceedings, releases, discharges and indemnities existing before repeal, and maintains established legal principles, jurisdictions, procedures, usages and offices insofar as they survive independently of the repealed enactment; it also establishes a non-revival rule preventing repeal from restoring any jurisdiction, office, right, title, privilege, restriction, exemption, usage, practice or other matter not currently in existence or force.
