California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 14 — Of Miscellaneous Provisions, Chapter 2 — Bonds and Undertakings, Article 14 — Liability of Principal and Sureties, Section 996.475

Nothing in this chapter is intended to limit the liability of a surety pursuant to any other statute. This section is declaratory of, and not a change in, existing law.

Notes

Limits the chapter’s effect so it does not restrict a surety’s liability arising under any other statute. The provision states that this rule is declaratory of existing law rather than a change in existing law, preserving separate statutory bases of surety liability outside the liabilities established by the chapter.
