LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 465, as introduced, Alanis. Money laundering.
Existing law requires specified financial institutions to make and keep a record of, and file a report with the Department of Justice regarding, each transaction by, through, or to, the financial institution that involves currency of more than $10,000, and makes a violation of these provisions a crime. Existing law authorizes the Department of Justice to make a report or information contained in a report available to a district attorney or a deputy district attorney.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

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