LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST SB 1241, Margett. Public safety. (1) Existing law provides procedures for the enforcement of child custody orders and support obligations. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions. (2) Existing law requires the Department of Justice to annually report on its activities and accomplishments to the Legislature and to federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, as well as to other interested groups. Existing law requires that report to include a separate report on the activities of the Crack Down Task Force Program, which has the responsibility for establishing, conducting, supporting, and coordinating crack down task forces composed of state and local law enforcement agencies targeting the investigation and apprehension of the Colombian cartel-street gang cocaine networks. This bill would delete the requirement that the Department of Justice's annual report include a separate report on the activities of the Crack Down Task Force Program. (3) Existing law requires peace officers to meet certain minimum standards, including being a high school graduate, as specified, passing the General Education Development Test, or having attained a 2-year or 4-year degree from an accredited college or university. This bill would revise and recast the above requirements. Among other changes, the bill would expand the category of organizations and agencies that are authorized to accredit schools for purposes of those provisions. (4) Existing law requires the Department of Justice to establish a Clandestine Laboratory Enforcement Program to assist state and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies in apprehending and prosecuting persons involved in the unlawful manufacture of controlled substances. Existing law also requires the Department of Justice to report annually on its activities and on the accomplishments of the Clandestine Laboratory Enforcement Program to the Legislature and to federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, as well as to other interested groups. This bill would delete provisions that require the Department of Justice to make those annual reports. (5) Existing law, enacted by initiative statute, requires sex offenders, as defined, to pay a fine, as specified. Existing law transfers $100 for each of those fines imposed in excess of $100 to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to defray the cost of the global positioning system used to monitor sex offender parolees. Existing law permits the Legislature to amend those provisions by a statute passed in each house by rollcall vote entered in the journal, 2/3 of the members of each house concurring, or by a statute that becomes effective only when approved by the voters. This bill would instead transfer 1/3 of every first conviction fine collected and 1/5 of the second and each subsequent conviction fine for that purpose. By amending that initiative statute, this bill would require a 2/3 vote. (6) Existing law declares that whenever an employer has agreed with any employee to make payments to a health or welfare fund, pension fund, or vacation plan, or other similar plan for the benefit of the employees, or a negotiated industrial promotion fund, or has entered into a collective bargaining agreement providing for those payments, it is unlawful for that employer willfully or with intent to defraud to fail to make the payments required by the terms of that agreement. A violation of that provision where the amount the employer failed to pay into the fund or funds exceeds $500 is punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for a period of not more than 5 years or in the county jail for a period of not more than one year, by a fine of not more than $1,000, or by both that imprisonment and fine. This bill would change that punishment to imprisonment in the state prison, or in a county jail for a period of not more than one year, by a fine of not more than $1,000, or by both that imprisonment and fine, and would state the intent of the Legislature regarding that change. (7) Existing law grants specified peace officers authority that extends to any place in the state, including any member of the Law Enforcement and Investigations Unit of the Department of Corrections, as specified. This bill would extend that authority to any member of the Office of Correctional Safety of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation whose primary duties are as specified. (8) Existing law authorizes the imprisonment of a person who manufactures, imports, sells, or possesses specified weapons. Existing law exempts from that provision the sale to, purchase by, or possession of, short-barreled shotguns or short-barreled rifles by police departments, sheriffs' offices, marshals' offices, the California Highway Patrol, the Department of Justice, or the military or naval forces, as specified. This bill would specify, in addition, that the sale to, purchase by, or possession of, short-barreled shotguns or short-barreled rifles by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, as specified, is not punishable by imprisonment. (9) Existing law declares the possession of any pistol or revolver upon which the name of the maker, model, manufacturer's number or other mark of identification has been changed, altered, removed, or obliterated, to be presumptive evidence that the possessor has changed, altered, removed, or obliterated the same. This bill would repeal that provision. (10) Existing law requires the Department of Justice to prepare and submit an annual report to the Legislature regarding the California Gang, Crime, and Violence Prevention Partnership Program, as specified. This bill would require the department to file that report only in years in which the program receives funds. (11) Existing law requires the Corrections Standards Authority to provide for the presentation of training to peace officers which will enable them to more efficiently handle, on the local level, the tracing of missing persons and victims of violent crimes. This bill would delete that provision. (12) This bill would also provide that any section of any act, other than SB 1498, enacted by the Legislature during the 2008 calendar year that takes effect on or before January 1, 2009, and that affects, as specified, any one or more of the sections affected by this act shall prevail over this act, whether this act is enacted prior to, or subsequent to, the enactment of that act. This bill would also make other related, conforming changes. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Section 56.103 of the Civil Code is amended to read: 56.103.
