What does this bill do?
Makes a one-word wording change in Civil Code section 2777 by replacing “such” with “the” in the sentence that says a person who indemnifies (agrees to cover another’s loss) is jointly and separately liable to anyone injured by the act. The change is purely editorial and does not alter who is liable under the law.
The summary is provided by generative AI which can make mistakes. For original language, please view the details in the table below.
Existing law specifies that one who indemnifies another against an act to be done by the latter, is liable jointly with the person indemnified, and separately, to every person injured by the act.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that provision.
One who indemnifies another against an act to be done by the latter, is liable jointly with the person indemnified, and separately, to every person injured by such the act.
