An act to amend Section 1559 of the Civil Code, relating to contracts.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 1109, as introduced, Gabriel. Contracts: parties.
Existing law requires contracts to have, among other things, parties capable of contracting. Existing law provides that if a contract is made expressly for the benefit of a 3rd person, the contract may be enforced by that 3rd person before the parties to the contract rescind it.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to those provisions.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

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


SECTION 1.

 Section 1559 of the Civil Code is amended to read:

 A contract, made expressly for the benefit of a third person, may be enforced by him the third person at any time before the parties thereto rescind it.
