Holdings:

            The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • The construction of a statute presents a question of law that a reviewing court reviews de novo upon appeal. When a court construes a penal statute, the court must not add to the words of that statute, nor ignore the statute's actual words, and the court must strictly construe the statute and limit its application to cases clearly within the scope of that statute. Also, every part of a statute is presumed to have some effect and no part will be considered meaningless unless absolutely necessary.
  • A reviewing court must assume that the General Assembly chose, with care, the words it used in enacting the statute, and it is bound by those words when it applies the statute.
