California Insurance Code Statutory History
California Insurance Code Statutory History
Insurance Code: Although the Insurance Code was enacted in 1935, this was a nonsubstantive codification of laws derived from early acts, common law, and former Civil Code, Code of Civil Procedure, and Political Code sections regulating insurance contracts and the business of insurance from as early as 1850 and 1872. These early laws should be reviewed when considering the origination of specific insurance code language. Significant changes to insurance laws since 1935 reveal this area of the law has been dynamic as it keeps pace with new insurance products and the issues relating to the business of insurance.
