           DIGEST  :    This bill corrects a chaptering-out error that 
          occurred when two bills amended the same code section.


           ANALYSIS  :    Existing law requires the clerk of the court 
          to collect a fee from a person ordered or permitted by the 
          court to attend a traffic violator school and authorizes 
          the clerk to accept a payment of at least 10% of a 
          specified amount upon filing a written agreement by the 
          defendant to pay the remainder of the fee according to an 
          installment payment schedule of no more than 90 days as 
          agreed upon with the court. 

          This bill corrects a chaptering-out error that occurred 
          when two bills amended the same code section and one bill, 
          SB 857 (Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review), Chapter 
                                                           CONTINUED

          720, Statutes of 2010, was chaptered after the other, AB 
          2499 (Portantino), Chapter 599, Statutes of 2010.  Because 
          the two measures were not double-joined, only the last 
          enacted bill went into effect, SB 857, leaving out the 
          changes made to the same code section by AB 2499.
