LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2801, as introduced, Rodriguez. Property insurance: notice of cancellation.
Existing law requires that a notice of cancellation with respect to certain types of insurance, including insurance for loss or damage to real property that is used predominantly for residential purposes and that consists of not more than 4 dwelling units, be delivered at least 20 calendar days prior to the effective date of the cancellation, except that if the cancellation is for nonpayment of premiums, or for fraud, the notice must be given at least 10 calendar days prior to the effective date of the cancellation.
This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that provision.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
