BILL ANALYSIS ------------------------------------------------------------ |SENATE RULES COMMITTEE | SB 1330| |Office of Senate Floor Analyses | | |1020 N Street, Suite 524 | | |(916) 651-1520 Fax: (916) | | |327-4478 | | ------------------------------------------------------------ THIRD READING Bill No: SB 1330 Author: Senate Judiciary Committee Amended: 4/5/10 Vote: 21 SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE : 5-0, 3/23/10 AYES: Corbett, Harman, Hancock, Leno, Walters SUBJECT : Maintenance of the codes SOURCE : Office of Legislative Counsel DIGEST : This bill makes numerous technical changes in the California codes that have been recommended by the Legislative Counsel's Office. The proposed changes will not make any substantive changes in the law. Senate Floor Analyses of 4/5/10 make additional technical changes in the codes and remove one provision from the bill. ANALYSIS : Every year, Legislative Counsel's Office identifies grammatical errors and other errors of a technical nature that have been inadvertently enacted into statutory law. The annual "Maintenance of the Codes" bill is the vehicle for implementing these wholesale corrections. In order to be included in the bill, the change must be technical only and may not affect or enact substantive law. Any proposed change that is identified as having a substantive change is automatically deleted from CONTINUED SB 1330 Page 2 the bill. Proposed Section 223 on page 433 of the bill provides that any other bill enacted by the Legislature during the 2009 calendar year that takes effect on or before January 1, 2010 and that amends, adds, repeals, or otherwise affects any section affected by this bill, shall prevail over the provisions of this bill. This "all-purpose" yielding clause avoids any chaptering problems that might otherwise occur.
