INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Stone

                        FEBRUARY 21, 2013

   An act to amend Section  1418.91 of the Health and Safety
Code, relating to elder abuse.   466.8 of the Penal
Code, relating to locksmithing. 


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 854, as amended, Stone.  Elder abuse.  
Locksmithing.  
   Existing law requires any person who knowingly and willfully makes
a key capable of opening any door or other means of entrance to a
residence or commercial establishment for another to obtain specified
information, including the name and address of the person requesting
or purchasing the key, and to retain a copy of the work order for 2
years. A violation of this provision is a misdemeanor.  
   This bill would require the person making the key to obtain the
e-mail address, if any, of the person requesting or purchasing the
key, and to retain the work order for 4 years, rather than 2 years.
Because the bill would revise the definition of a crime, the bill
wold impose a state-mandated local program.  
   The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.  
   This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.  
   Existing law requires a long-term health care facility to report
to the State Department of Public Health immediately, or within 24
hours, all incidents of alleged or suspected abuse of a facility
resident.  
   This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to this
provision. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee:  no
  yes  . State-mandated local program:  no
  yes  .
