Cal. Welf. & Inst. Code § 4659.17 — Third-Party Liability is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
When the department or regional center has perfected a lien upon a judgment or award in favor of a child eligible for the California Early Intervention Program or a consumer against any third party for an injury for which the consumer has received services pursuant to this division, the department or the regional center shall be entitled to a writ of execution as lien claimant to enforce payment of the lien against the third party with interest and other accruing costs as in the case of other executions. In the event the amount of the judgment or award so recovered has been paid to the child or consumer, the department or the regional center shall be entitled to a writ of execution against the child or consumer to the extent of the department’s or the regional center’s lien, with interest and other accruing costs as in the case of other executions.
