N.D. Cent. Code § 46-03-10
In arranging the laws, memorials, and resolutions for publication, the legislative council shall make such corrections in orthography, grammatical construction, and punctuation of the same as in its judgment are proper. When any law published in the code contains a reference to customary weights and measures, the equivalent weights and measures of the metric system must be added to the law as an insertion. When any such words or clauses are inserted, the same must be enclosed in brackets. In arranging the laws for publication and in publishing and maintaining the laws, the legislative council may change statutory references to numbers and letters to correct references to redesignated or repealed chapters, sections, or portions of sections and change statutory references to institutions, agencies, offices, and officers to be consistent with other statutory usage and constitutional provisions.
