“State” when not specifically referring to this State, means any state, territory or insular possession of the United States, or the District of Columbia.
Notes
Defines “state,” when the term does not specifically refer to California, to include any state, territory, or insular possession of the United States and the District of Columbia. The definition therefore gives the broader geographic meaning to nonspecific uses of “state” within the applicable provisions.
