§ 23.44. Short titles.
A section or major subdivision may be given an official short title (e.g. Pennsylvania Uniform Firearms Act) to simplify informal references to its provisions. However, this short title will not be used in an official citation contained in another title or statute unless contained in the cross reference description of the section or major subdivision referred to. It is not necessary that the short title for an entire title conform to the heading of the title (e.g. Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) which was given the short title Crimes Code). Short titles are particularly useful for identifying uniform laws incorporated into the Statutes.
