Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 10, § 1.4 - Section Numbers

Current through Register 2021 Notice Reg. No. 52, December 24, 2021

(a) In each subchapter (other than Subchapter 95) of this Chapter: The number of each section consists of two or more units, each separated from the other by a decimal point. The first unit corresponds with the subchapter number. The second unit represents the sequential order of the section within the subchapter. The third and succeeding units, if any, represent the sequential order of the section within the preceding unit. Thus, a section numbered 5.15 would be in Subchapter 5 and would follow any section in Subchapter 5 the second unit in the number of which is less than 15 (e.g., 5.14, 5.13, 5.12, etc.) but would precede any section in Subchapter 5 the second unit in the number of which is greater than 15 (e.g., 5.16, 5.17, 5.18, etc.). Similarly, a section numbered 5.15.7, would be in Subchapter 5 and would follow any section in Subchapter 5 the second unit in the number of which is 15 or less than 15 and, if 15, the third unit in the number of which is less than 7 (e.g., 5.15.6, 5.15.5, 5.15.4, etc.) but would precede any section in Subchapter 5 the second unit in the number of which is 15 or greater than 15 and, if 15, the third unit in the number of which is greater than 7 (e.g., 5.15.8, 5.15.9, 5.15.10, etc.).

(b) In Subchapter 95 of this Chapter: The number of each section consists of two units, each separated from the other by a decimal point. The first unit is "95." The second unit represents the sequential order of the Section within Subchapter 95 and also corresponds to the number of the form which is illustrated in the section.
