Insurance: judicial interpretation.
Summary
Under existing law, law is a solemn expression of the will of the supreme power of the state, which is expressed in the state Constitution and in statutes. Existing law sets forth maxims of jurisprudence and provides rules for the interpretation of statutes. This bill would state that a secondary source on insurance is not the law or public policy of the state, and is not authoritative if, among other things, it conflicts with the state Constitution or statutes.
