Existing law authorizes the formation of nonprofit corporations under the Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law by 20 or more persons for the prevention of cruelty to animals. Existing law authorizes a corporation, or human officer thereof, to proffer a complaint against any person, before any court or magistrate having jurisdiction, for the violation of any law relating to or affecting animals and to aid in the prosecution of the offender before a court or magistrate. This bill would authorize a corporation, or humane officer thereof, proffering a complaint under existing law to bring it as a civil action to obtain specific or injunctive relief to enforce laws relating to or affecting animals. This bill would also make legislative findings and declarations in support of its provisions.
