Cal. Health & Safety Code § 7207 — Disposal of Unclaimed Dead is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

Whenever, through the failure of any person to notify the State department, or promptly to deliver the body of a deceased indigent as required by the State department, such body becomes unfit for scientific or educational purposes, the State department shall so certify and the remains shall be interred at the expense of those guilty of such noncompliance.
