Enacted
Existing law prohibits a person from interfering with the transport of a vehicle to a storage facility, auction, or dealer by an individual who is employed by a repossession agency or is licensed as a repossession agency once repossession is complete, as provided. A violation of these provisions would be an infraction pursuant to other provisions of law. Under existing law, a violation of this provision is an infraction, punishable by specified fines.
This bill would instead make the interference with the transport of a vehicle to a storage facility, auction, or dealer, as described above, punishable as an infraction or misdemeanor, as specified. Because the bill would increase the punishment required by the crime, it would impose a state-mandated local program. double the fines, as specified.
