Handbook on Legislative Drafting in California

My first book on drafting legislation in California is titled, Introduction to Drafting Legislation in California. When I wrote that book, and then had it published in early 2020, I knew that there were many other drafting topics to eventually cover.

That belief was strengthened with co-teaching the course Legislative Drafting at the University of California, Davis, King Hall School of Law the past two years. As a result, this book contains 290 chapters and I hope for it to be a handbook for those involved or interested in drafting legislation in this state.

California is one of about twenty states that do not publish their drafting manual, so this handbook is the next best option.
