Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 7614.9 — Definitions and Regulation of Cemeteries is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
Notwithstanding any other law, every cemetery authority shall present to the survivor of the deceased who is handling the burial or cremation arrangements or the responsible party a copy of any preneed agreement that has been signed and paid in full, or in part, by or on behalf of the deceased and is in the possession of the cemetery authority. The copy may be presented in person, by certified mail, or by facsimile transmission, as agreed upon by the survivor of the deceased or the responsible party. A cemetery authority who knowingly fails to present the preneed agreement to the survivor of the deceased or the responsible party shall be liable for a civil fine equal to three times the cost of the preneed agreement, or one thousand dollars ($1,000), whichever is greater.
