LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

Existing law sets forth the requirements for establishing the consent of the parties to the formation of a contract.

This bill would provide that consent is not established by a representation by a minor that the minor’s parent or legal guardian has consented.

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

SECTION 1.

Section 1568.5 is added to the Civil Code, to read:

1568.5.

A representation by a minor that the minor’s parent or legal guardian has consented shall not be considered to be consent for purposes of this chapter.
