MINOR

No substantive policy changes were made between these two versions of AB 2358. The differences are entirely presentational: the first version uses a traditional legislative document format with line numbers and page headers, while the second version is a web-based rendering that adds navigation elements (skip to content, home, accessibility, FAQ, etc.) and reformats the layout. The actual statutory text of Section 1798.99.1 of the Civil Code is identical in both versions.

TECHNICAL

The bill was re-rendered from a traditional legislative document format (with line numbers, page headers, and column layout) to a web-based format with navigation menus, quick search, and different heading structure. No changes to the underlying law were made.
