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 Counsels Office. The proposed changes would
not make any substantive change in the law.
Assembly Amendments add additional technical changes to the

codes.
ANALYSIS : Every year, the 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 measure, 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
the bill.
A condition for inclusion in the annual code maintenance
bill is that the change must be nonsubstantive.
Consequently, any provision that is identified as making a
substantive law change has been or will be deleted by the
Legislative Counsel's Office.
Proposed Section 242 on page 583 of the bill provides that
any other bill enacted by the Legislature during the 2012
calendar year that takes effect on or before January 1,
2013, and that amends, amends and renumbers, adds, repeals
and adds, or repeals a section that is amended, amended and
renumbered, added, repealed and added, or repealed by this
act, shall prevail over the provisions of this bill. This
"all-purpose" yielding clause avoids any double jointing
problems that might otherwise occur.
