Numbering system in Revised Statutes is ___, __________________, ________________ and ____________.

• A. TITLE, CHAPTER, SECTION, SUBSECTION
• B. CHAPTER, TITLE, SECTION, SUBSECTION
• C. TITLE, SECTION, CHAPTER, SUBSECTION
• D. TITLE, CHAPTER, SUBSECTION, SECTION

Answer: (A)

The numbers in the Revised Statutes follow a clear hierarchy: each statute is organized first by Title, then by Chapter within that Title, then by Section within that Chapter, and finally by Subsection within that Section. This order reflects how statutes are built from broad topics to more specific provisions, making it easy to locate the exact rule you need. For example, you might see a reference like Title parallel to a topic, Chapter narrowing that topic, Section pointing to the exact rule, and Subsection detailing a particular condition or exception.

The other ordering options break this natural structure. They place a Chapter before a Title, or a Section before its Chapter, or a Subsection before its Section, which would not reflect how the statutory material is actually organized.
