California Codes, Civil Code - CIV, Division 3 — Obligations, Part 4 — Obligations Arising from Particular Transactions, Title 2 — Credit Sales, Chapter 1 — Retail Installment Sales, Article 3 — Provisions of Retail Installment Contracts, Section 1803.4

The seller shall not obtain the signature of the buyer to a contract when it contains blank spaces to be filled in after it has been signed.

Notes

Prohibits a seller from obtaining the buyer’s signature on a contract containing blank spaces that are intended to be filled in after signing. Bars execution of the contract while such post-signing blanks remain, so the buyer’s signature cannot be obtained before the spaces intended for later completion are filled.
