Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil Code of the State of California, Vol. 1 of 2 The Governor of the State of California, acting under authority of law, appointed in May, eighteen hundred and seventy, three Commissioners to draft a complete system of laws, and to present the same to the Legislature next to convene. To this task the Commissioners applied themselves, and with painstaking care and great labor completed and presented a report in four volumes, respectively entitled the political, CIVIL, CIVIL procedure, and penal codes. These were critically examined by an Advisory Committee, consisting of two eminent members of the legal profession - Messrs. Sid ney L. Johnson and Charles A. Tuttle - and, after a careful review by the Legislative Committees, were enacted into laws. Each is to a great extent independent of the other.
