LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 1214, as amended, Mark Stone. ~~Tenancy.~~ Levying Officer Electronic Transactions Act.

Under existing law, the Levying Officer Electronic Transactions Act, a levying officer, as defined, may create, store, print, or transmit an electronic record in the place of, and in the same manner as, the paper record or document upon which the electronic record is based. Existing law requires any electronic record transmitted to a levying officer to be accompanied by specified information, including the name and electronic address of the sender. Existing law requires the person transmitting the electronic record to, among other things, deliver the paper version of the record or document to the levying officer within 5 days after a request to do so has been mailed to the sender by the levying officer.
This bill would require an electronic record transmitted to a levying officer to be accompanied by the mailing address of the sender in addition to the above-described information. The bill would clarify that the person transmitting the electronic record must deliver the paper version of the record or document to the levying officer within 5 days after a written request to do so has been mailed to the sender by the levying officer.
Existing law governs the obligations of tenants and landlords under a lease or tenancy. Existing law authorizes a tenant who has made a payment to a public utility or publicly owned utility, or a district under any of certain statutes to deduct the amount of the payment from the rent when due.
~~This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that provision.~~
