Rulemaking Under Penal Code Section 5058
As a general matter, rulemaking by a state agency is governed by the Administrative Procedure Act. Penal Code Section 5058 provides special procedures for rulemaking by the Department of Corrections. The Law Revision Commission studied the provisions of Section 5058 that govern pilot program regulations and emergency rulemaking, and recommended a number of minor improvements to those provisions. The Commission's recommendation was enacted by the Legislature. See below.
