They're all gone, and here's what they left behind.
Lawmakers enacted 470 laws this session, according to Gerry Cohen, director of bill drafting. That includes bills already signed by Gov. Beverly Perdue, as well as local bills, which don't require her signature.
As of Tuesday evening, another batch of more than 100 bills still needed the governor's signature, which is required by Sept. 10, the 30th day after adjournment.
Let's go to the big board: A potential total of 578 laws enacted in 2009, compared with 551 in the 2007 long session.
A total of 33 joint resolutions passed. Those often honor a prominent figure or make appointments to state commissions. The legislature passed 70 in 2007.
