Purdon's Pennsylvania Statutes is an unofficial consolidation of the statutes of Pennsylvania, a state of the United States of America.[1] The state's statutes are organized into 79 topic groups, ranging from "Aeronautics" to "Zoning," spread across 107 volumes.[2] An alternate publication, "Purdon's Pennsylvania Statutes Annotated," includes the text of statutes, as well as cross-references, footnotes, and commentary developed over two centuries.[2] The annotated version is comparable to the United States Code Annotated.[3][4]
In 2007, the Pennsylvania General Assembly struck a deal with Thomson West to post an unofficial version of the statutes for free online, making it the last state to freely provide its statutes online.[2]
