AB 1505 California Assembly · 2015-2016 Regular Session

Statute of limitations: public contracts.

Summary
Existing law makes it a misdemeanor to split or separate into smaller work orders or projects any public work project for the purpose of evading the requirement that public work be done by contract after competitive bidding. Existing law requires that the prosecution of a misdemeanor, unless otherwise provided by law, commence within one year of the commission of the offense. This bill would require that prosecution for a misdemeanor resulting from evading provisions requiring public work projects to be done by contract after competitive bidding, as prescribed, be commenced within 3 years of the commission of the offense.
