As introduced, SB 909 would add to the Probate Code, Division 9, a new
PART 9, beginning with §19502, to be the Uniform Trust Decanting Act .
Decanting a trust is a technique to "decant" -- like pouring wine from one
container, i.e. an old trust into one or more "new" trusts as well as change
the terms. This bill would codify enabling language to use this technique in
California. A new §19523 would cover animal trusts as described in Probate
Code §15212 for which decanting would be allowed subject to restrictions.

authored by Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi of Torrance and co-authors,
Richard Bloom of Santa Monica and Patrick O'Donnell of Long Beach, would
begin with 6 recitals and conclude with 3 substantive elements of a
resolution to include California's core value of humane treatment and
empathy to companion animals in diplomatic relationships relative to
California and its municipalities, as follows:
WHEREAS, Throughout the history of California, compassion toward
companion animals has been fundamental to the cultures of its people; and
WHEREAS, The policy of the State of California has always been to promote
the humane treatment of companion animals by eradicating neglect and
cruelty of any kind and fostering kindness and empathy toward
companion animals in its people; and
WHEREAS, California is a national leader in the humane treatment of
companion animals in the implementation of its laws, resolutions, and
policies, and in the humane education of its people; and
WHEREAS, Scientific research has established that the human-animal bond
is a mutually beneficial relationship that enriches the lives and improves
the health and well-being of companion animals and people alike and is
intrinsically linked to respect, kindness, and empathy among people; and
WHEREAS, California’s national leadership status is of great value in
educational, tourism, and cultural exchanges with other states and with
foreign countries; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate thereof
concurring, That the Legislature recognizes that the humane treatment of
companion animals through the eradication of neglect and cruelty and the
fostering of kindness and empathy toward companion animals are core
principles of the State of California; and be it further
Resolved, That the Legislature encourages any agreement or
memorandum of understanding entered into, or resolution adopted, that
formally declares a “sister state” relationship, or similar relationship of
mutual goodwill and bilateral cooperation, between the State of California
and a foreign country, state, or city to emphasize the humane treatment of
companion animals and the fostering of kindness and empathy toward
companion animals as core principles of the State of California; and be it
further
Resolved, That the Legislature encourages all parties declaring a sister
state or similar relationship to include, in that declaration, a joint
commitment to promote the humane treatment of companion animals and
promote kindness and empathy toward companion animals through laws,
resolutions, and policies, and through the humane education of their
people; and be it further
Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this
resolution to the author for appropriate distribution.

(e) A pet store operator shall provide to the prospective purchaser, or
purchaser of an animal, the adoption policy of the public animal control

As introduced, AB 2774 would express the Legislature's intent to enact
legislation that would require a court to submit information on an individual
convicted of animal abuse to the Department of Justice and that would
require the Department of Justice to create an Internet Web site with a list of
individuals convicted of animal abuse for the purpose of providing animal
shelters, pet stores, and animal sellers with this information.
Amended in Assembly, March 22, 2018 to add to the Penal Code new
§600.6 defining the "animal abuse" convictions covered as Penal Code
sections 597, 597a, 597b, 597f, 597h, 597j, 597s, 597.1, 597.5, or 600 for
which the arresting agency would be required to electronically forward to the
Department of Justice specified booking information.
§600.7 The DOJ would make specified information available to "specified
law enforcement agencies, animal shelters, pet dealers, animal adoption
centers, and animal-oriented businesses" and would remain posted for 5
years for misdemeanor conviction and 10 for felony.
§600.8 would provide for additional fines of $200 for each misdemeanor
conviction and $500 for each felony conviction to be deposited in a newly
created Animal Protection Fund from which the Legislature would
appropriate money to be paid to the DOJ for costs to provide this information.
Amended in Assembly, April 12, 2018 to delete all previous content and to
amend Penal Code §597.9 to add a new subsection "(e) A municipal animal
shelter may ask an individual who is attempting to adopt an animal from that
facility whether he or she is prohibited from owning or possessing an
animal pursuant to this section." The title is changed to, "Municipal animal
shelters: adoption application: crimes."
