AB 2254

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law, the State Bar Act, provides for the licensing and regulation of attorneys by the State Bar of California. Existing law requires the State Bar to publicize to its members in the annual dues statement and other appropriate communications that its members have the right to limit the sale or disclosure of member information not reasonably related to regulatory purposes. Existing law further requires the State Bar, in those communications, to note the location of its privacy policy and a simple procedure by which a member may exercise his or her right to prohibit or restrict the sale or disclosure of member information. This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to these provisions.
